To many this might be just an image of a yoga mat. To me, it is something so deeply personal to me—it is a a symbol of a returning to a part of my personal practice that has been on hold for a couple of years! Yep, today was the first time I unrolled a yoga mat and did a complete practice for MYSELF guided beautifully by a dear friend.

To be led through a practice was like receiving the most precious drink of water for my thirsty soul. It was perfect and my hip felt so good. Three hard surgeries are officially behind me and I’m ready to come back home to my mat on a regular basis.

Yoga for the win!
