Unfurling into Yoga :: part 2

Last week I wrote about my new beginning   Unfurling into Yoga  and I just wanted to share an update about how the class went.  As I opened the door to the studio, there stood a yoga instructor whom I had never seen before.  She introduced herself (in a beautiful British accent) as June.  She smiled so warmly that it felt like we were old friends.  She asked if I had ever done yoga before.  How fitting!  I mentioned that I was back after quite some time away due to an injury. Throughout the class she shared her own struggles with certain poses saying how even after years and years of practice she has learned to accept her body for what it is able to do rather than focus on the way she cannot perfectly do certain poses.   "Yoga is not a competition.  You are only here to do what you can do today, in this moment.  What you can do today you may not be able to do tomorrow.   Learn to accept." Can you even imagine how love...
