So, If yoga means union, why has it become a way for people to congratulate themselves on how fabulous they are? Not everyone, of course, put down the pitchforks and torches, but way too much promo on the topic is focused on results impacting attractiveness. Why is the heart of the practice in fine print? Oh, and by the way, you will feel more connected to your life?
Today I did sanding the furniture yoga, cleaning the kitchen yoga, picking burrs out of the cat's fur yoga and having popcorn and a movie yoga. As soon as I finish posting, I'll be having bicycle yoga, but right now, I'm wondering about why all the things we can do and are doing with our lives do not rise to the level of yoga so that we are forced to go to a yoga class or training. Seems to me that unity is always available, and it's free.
A little act of attention to where I am, how I am moving through this molecular cloud I have specialized organs to decipher [a bit…] remembering to breathe, noticing how I get triggered to fly away, and then, coming in for a landing once more.
Why is this not yoga?
