Bikram Yoga: Tending the Body Like a Garden or Even Like a Car
In this Bikram Yoga (traditional 90-minute, original hot yoga) class, we explore how a regular Bikram Yoga class is akin to the regular and loving tending of a garden. Or the regular and attentive maintenance of a car. *Of course* care and attention are required for a garden, right? And it is obvious that cars need upkeep, too, right?
Why then, in our culture, are we surprised when a lack of maintenance of our bodies leads to breakdown and chronic problems? Perhaps we have gotten so far away from garden and car maintenance....and so far down the road of planned obsolescence, that it is a radical act to take care of something for the long term...
Imagine: a ten percent intensity yoga practice, even just once a week, for five years. You with that practice is going to be VERY DIFFERENT and so much healthier than the version of you without that practice.
