right on again funky<br><br> that poem was
patronizing and nauseating.<br><br> Yeah. And i agree with
the pressing from behind - that has been<br> my very
(almost) worst adjustment tooo!<br><br> And why aren't
more people acknowledging the variety of<br> emotions
that yoga dislodges? Yes, bouts of anger, yes, a
feeling<br> of sedation and calm and meditation, yes,
sadness. Yes, just<br> feeling great and ready for the day
like a rainstorm has flushed all<br> cobwebs
away.<br><br> Come out and reveal yourselves, lurkers. Unless
you have no<br> dents in your armor of course.
Noooothing stored in those stiff<br> hips.<br><br> They will
stay stiff until you open up.<br> Until you dare to
look down into that inner abyss.

I think it's ok to acknowledge that as human
beings we will encounter the whole range of emotions
that can possibly exist. I think even evolved beings
experience sadness etc. That's what makes us human. Those
emotions are forms of energy which can be extremely
powerful. I recently had quite an experience with anger. I
am still thinking of the energy rush beneath it!
That doesn't make it positive or negative - it just
exists. We can choose to invest in the emotion completely
or remain detached and observe it. I think this
takes much practice.<br> People who think that these
real emotions will cease to exist are conjuring up a
spiritual Disneyland.

nadi ca<br><br>thankyou.<br>Especially for using
my own very favorite expression.....people who
expect disney. (Normally myself using it in the context
of people who expect a new partner to live out their
fantasies and not to be a real person.) No, also in yoga
their is no disney, because disney is cold, unreal and
....ultimately fake. But hey, it is predictable and all most
people ever want to deal with.<br><br>It is the real
stuff, admittedly uncomfortable sometimes, that in the
end truly makes us feel alive.<br><br>Risk a little,
FEEL a little, and own it...!

Yesh, if you're going to rip or preach of
otherwise offer free advice (worth every penny it is) then
fine...but signing off with the "i louve you" adds cloying
suspect sentiment to what's already quite sententious.
