So I started my yoga home practice again and boy how I missed you. I give you some of my and my fathers rich history with yoga. When he died, it hit me like a lightning bolt… It’s my turn.
Episode notes:
There is just no calming down that hair. Headphones just weren’t doing it.
What I’m going to talk about on this episode is how awesome yoga is.
My father started doing yoga back in the late 60’s early 70’s. He got into mediation. His writing. Painting. Painting was a big thing for him. He even liked some crystals. He was a redneck from WY who liked his hippy stuff.
Literally the day he died the yoga torch was handed to me. The yoga world was not big enough for the both of us. The state of WY was not big enough for the both of us. Although we had tremendous love for each other we were conflicting personalities.
I was cleaning out his bookshelf… When a family member dies you’ve got some stuff to clean out. I find his little home yoga practice and in that moment I knew it was my turn to do yoga.
It has helped me so much for the last 9 or so years… It helped bring full circle my yogic personality.
Used to teach, loved the trainings, took so many different trainings… At the beginning of the covid… I went to the last official class at Yoga Tropics before they shut it down. And I just kind of stopped doing yoga…
So I started up again with a home practice a little bit ago and it is AWESOME… It is so so good, especially for if situations get stressful or there’s just lots of sitting. And so for this last year I just walked and walked and walked.
To start again and re open the body, and stretch it out, and the heart opening and the back bends and the forward bends and the hip stretching, and the twisting, all of it is so good and it just lets out all of that energy that gets trapped in your body and muscles and joints…
I can literally see myself physically re opening up and getting longer. I had started seeing myself hunching over and collapsing on myself…
Of course some of the motivation was the girl I was crushing on… I feel like I look better when I do the yoga… So selfishly…
It could just be my mind attaching an excuse to getting back on the mat… Yoga, the asana, is so powerful. And the breathing as you're focusing on the long breaths in and the long breaths out.
Back to Sandy Z my father… He was a single dad… when he died it hit me like a lightning bolt “I see why he does the yoga, I see why he does the meditation, I see why he does these tools.” As I’m gonna bring together in the tools for a good life summit. He did it for survival. To maintain his sanity… I want to keep my sanity.
