Reflections on my Yoga Journal Experience
Its September, its snowing, I’m at the yoga journal conference in Estes Park, Co. Hoping for some NEW INSIRATION. I was running late, trying to fight my annoyance and not be unyogilike. Kinda like unladylike, but more green. My business partner Kourtney is here. She is in charge of the registration. She knows everybody. I’m so excited to know her that I almost feel famous. But the real reason that I’m here is to experience Desikachar. There he was on stage. I had to sneak in because of my lateness, sit in the back. Look yogilike. Sit still. My knee hurts. Prop it . I’m trying to figure out what tradition these people in the room come from. I assume that all the people with their mats straight are Iyengar trained. I’m stereotyping again. I also think that I’m probably wrong. Definitely unyogilike. Time to pay attention. I’m having a hard time understanding him. I drop into being in the moment…
Ya hoo! He gave it to me: Find God in the koshas. It pulls our teacher training together. And I got some quotes from him that are perfect “do you believe in yoga?” and “Everything must be adapted.” It is fun to find a new teacher.
