Journey to the Center of My Heart

Hello,

I live in Texas and started doing a yoga routine that I found on Netflix streaming. I began this about 2 and 1/2 weeks ago.

My interest in yoga was born following three years of a traumatic life situation that culminated in my husband’s suicide attempt. At that point I realized that it was time to start working on emotional healing and yoga seemed like a great way to deal with the high anxiety levels I’ve been facing.

I love it! I feel soooo much better and the more I do, the more I want to do.

For the first two weeks, I’ve been waking at 5am to do ‘Candlelight Yoga’ with Sara Ivanhoe. This week I’ve started doing “10 Minute Solution Yoga” - sections ‘basic,’ ‘burn’ and ‘relaxation’ for a 30 min total session in the morning.

I love the ‘Candlelight Yoga’ session so much that I started doing that when I get home from work, while my daughter has her free time before we start dinner.

I am here to learn more about the entire yoga philosophy and lifestyle and continue my journey of emotional healing. Please excuse my lack of familiarity with all of the terminology - I’m a noob :wink:

Welcome! If you’re around the Austin area, I know lots of us give free yoga classes in the park too :slight_smile:

Anyway, thank you so much for sharing your story and I wish you all the best.

Thank you for the warm welcome.

I am actually in the Dallas area. Austin is a wonderful city with some beautiful lakes nearby.

Cool :slight_smile:

There may be some great yoga related activities going on there. I’d suggest checking out www.meetup.com and putting in yoga as an interest. It’s also a great way to meet fellow yogis in person :slight_smile:

Again, welcome to the forum!

Sara Ivanhoe ? You gotta love her. :slight_smile:

I did not know this name is still in circulation.

I just searched Netflix looking for a video and found it :slight_smile: It was produced in 2002
