Looking like a Teenager

Posted: Oct 2, 08 10:10am

People tell me I have "Spring in My Step" and I tell them since I started practicing yoga three years ago my body and mind have lost about twenty years or more of anxiety,stress and gained flexibility, balance, toning and a walk of a much younger person. It has also changed my skin from being drab to alive and soft, a glow that I would only get in the past with blush. The medicines and vitamins I used to take for stiffness in the arms and legs are not needed.

Am I an advocate for yoga? Absolutely! In my book "it means free and easy healthy medicine for our mind, body and soul" I love being a pretzel at times.....

I always think of the Dylan song, "I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now."

It's a question of feeling better physically, shedding stress, and sleeping better. It's also a question of making good choices. These can be as simple as dietary choices or going to bed at a decent time. It can also mean choosing to avoid toxic situations.

It can be a way to stand on one's own two feet, to not have to depend on others for one's well-being or sense of self.
