more aware of what is happening right now. All my worries about
the future of my health are really an illusion. It has not happened.
Besides, there are no guarantees either way. And I cannot change all
the things that have already happened – these things belong to the
past. So what I’m left with is the now and that now is all we’ve got.
Naturally, to me, this meant stepping on my mat more often, as if
to seek this state of relaxation more often too. Teacher training was
my next step. It was throughout this – and going through a double
mastectomy at the same time – that I learnt all about the yoga that
I could practice off the mat too. Phew, what a relief that was! For
many weeks I was bandaged up and unable to move my arms and
body well but I never felt I was missing out on anything.
Today I now know that my yoga practice had taken on another
transformation. It had shifted off the mat and into my emotional and
mental state, deep into my heart. How wonderful to be able to tap
into yoga in so many different ways.
