Valentine’s Day Yoga
Tammy,
Today one celebrates Valentine’s Day and exchanges romantic gifts with his/her special person.
What does everybody do for his or her self? No, I’m not referring to anything pornographic. In class you generate an atmosphere of silliness, acceptance, and wacky places where we’re supposed to put our various body parts which you call poses. You ask us to focus our mind. You ask us to look into our souls and love the person in the mirror exactly the way we are, right? Does it matter exactly how we do the pose? I think you adjust us to make the body feel better, rather than worrying about whether the body looks perfect, right? So by following your directions to breathe in the moment and be present, are you showing us how to give ourselves presents? Does that make you Saint Valentine and us students your little cherubs? Thank you.
If you don’t mind, I will not be wearing red for class today. I may be in the present but I don’t think others would take me seriously as Cupid in warrior I or warrior junior, or as you say warrior II.
