My name is Lana, I truely liked your blog post.I’m 28 years old.
I wanna share my quick story. I was like 78 Kg 1 year back.
The problem was, I was so ashamed about my body because I
was not fit. this thinking was revolving around my head all
the time. I signed up for a local gym but I didn’t find any
value from it because trainers never care about the level
of everybody in the room, sometimes I feel defeated,
and thought, I can’t do this anymore. But fortunately,
I found a 12-week yoga class, that transformed me completely,
I burned my fat and manage to reduce my weight to 59.
It not only transformed me physically but gave
confidence and strength. My Husband started amazed
in this transformation, and he said: I love it.
It was an inspirational journey for the first time
I went through. I also encourage you to do this.
you know what, We take care very less of our body
because we don’t feel responsible for ourselves,
it’s like a mother who cares more about children
and less about herself.
Hi Lana,
Thank you so much for sharing your story, it is very brave to hear that you showed up for yourself in this way.
Yoga, as I am sure you have now experienced, is far more than what many western studios present yoga as. Traditionally, only one small chapter of the teaching was physical and this is where the word ‘asana’ comes from. Asana meaning ‘seat’, and back when yoga was taught through linages (one to one) there were only 2 physical body shapes, and both of these being meditation postures where the practitioner was to ‘sit’. Yoga meaning ‘to yoke’ is all about joining, this connection of the body, mind, spirit – yoga is a method to experience all that is.
Well done on exploring your self care in this way. I am sure your journey continues to unfold.
With ease,
Jen
