A new pose
thoughts from the beginning of the pandemic

This time is dark and confusing.
You may be overwhelmed with fear from all of the inevitable uncertainty.
It's almost like learning a new yoga pose, which can feel uncomfortable at first
But eventually your body becomes attuned to what are now familiar aches.
No matter what new challenges crippled you with anxiety during your yoga practice
Did you notice that once you finished, and just before you took that final bow
You sat a little taller than when you started?
This time is equatable to learning a new pose. Living in the present moment is unsettling, feeling all of the pain that accompanies it.
But until all of this ends, I hope you find solace in knowing that we will walk away from this standing taller than we did before.
I hope you feel empowered. I hope you feel loved.
