From class this morning. Been feeling all the things lately—overwhelmed, sad, worried, desperately trying to hang on to the pieces of joy I have found or cultivated. One of my most important people called me the other day, reaching out to connect, and I was so grateful because I had been thinking almost daily for a month that I should call her but I couldn’t make my cement boots move. She asked how I am and I realized while the words came out that I have been making my world so very small, hoping that by doing so I can preserve my peace and honestly, it sounded good when I said it but I haven’t been able to stop thinking about saying it {doing it} since my conversation with her. Is it true? Is it helping? Is it me taking care of myself or is it me trying to insulate myself and then I’m ending up insulated FROM myself? So I made myself reach out to some people, places, that I love and have been a tether for me to everything else in the times in my life I have wandered off a bit and I connected.
And I got on my mat this morning.
It’s all Yoga.
