I know, I know, it's been a while. There have been a few life changes and I'm just beginning to feel like writing again. I managed to get out of my old job, into a new one, and things are ever evolving there.
The changes can be trying, for sure. I struggle a lot with anxiety and depression. Thankfully I've been receiving help for it, outside of yoga. I've found some very helpful books and been doing a lot of reading. I've met some interesting people.
I've come to discover what I love about yoga, aside from the exercise and breathing. It's the community. Even if I run in and out of class, there is something magical about being in the same room with people working their bodies in the same way. Te conversations that are had before and after class are even more magical. It allows me to connect with others.
If there is anything I've learned recently is that we are never alone in how we are feeling. We are all tired, all anxious about something. We all have moments where we fight depression. The key is to accept that and not beat ourselves up for having "dark" thoughts. Don't make life harder than it already is.
Namaste my friends,
Chess
