hi, friends!
Hello! Time for an intro for all the folks who are new here. 😃 Welcome! I’m Zelinda and I teach yoga that is accessible for people with all kinds of bodies. Yoga is so often portrayed as an exercise or activity for people who have young, thin, flexible bodies, and that kinda makes me mad! This might come as a surprise, but the real purpose of yoga is to help us calm and quiet our minds. So why do we do yoga poses? Well, we can understand our bodies more easily than we can understand our minds, so we use the body as a tool to help us learn how to become mindful, which in turn calms the mind. I get that this may not immediately make sense; it’s one of those things you have to experience in order to understand well. If you’re interested in practicing yoga with your ordinary body to calm your mind, you can find a free 7-day beginners challenge on our YouTube channel or join us for a Zoom class and please message me with any questions. And if you already practice with me/us, I’d love to hear about your favorite benefit that you’ve gained from your practice. ❤️
