One thought on “Community Voices: Using Yoga to Heal Illness and Chronic Conditions”
Linda
I began practicing yoga in 1995 by an invitation from a friend. At the time I was going through a divorce and I had a tremendous amount of anxiety. I had no idea what yoga was or how I could benefit.
After my first class of Classical yoga I felt amazingly calm, something I hadn’t felt in years, if ever. At first I felt something was wrong with me because the feeling of calmness wasn’t familiar at all.
I couldn’t wait to go back to my next class. Overtime with the regular practice of Classical yoga the lifetime of anxiety that I experienced ceased and I became free to experience the beauty of life and in 2007 I became a Sivananda Yoga Teacher.
Blessings,
Linda
