Interview with a Yogi

How long have you been practicing yoga? Since January 2005 -- it is the best!

If you only had one pose to take to a desert island, what would it be? Airplane.

If there was one pose you NEVER had to do again, what would it be? Shoulderstand.

 What is your favorite dessert? Apple pie with vanilla ice cream

What actor should play you in the film adaptation of your life? Julie Andrews in the Sound of Music -- I love children!

Why do you practice yoga?

First of all, I love Carolyn!  She is witty, intellectual, kind, fun ...

Secondly, I have suffered from shoulder, neck and back pain for many years and have needed surgery for ages -- I was told.  While sitting in my lovely designer gown at CMC in December 2004, I decided that surgery and I did NOT get along well so I dressed, left my room and walked home.  The next day I took my CAT scans, which clearly showed four herniated cervical discs, to Caroly and asked her if she could help me.  After several weeks of privates, I was well ... no pain!  As an extra bonus, my recurring sciatica was eliminated, too. 

Yoga is fabulous.  Make no mistake, though.  Yoga is tough and a real workout, but it makes you so much more flexible and feel so refreshed and good without torturing yourself.  It's a fun way to exercise mind and body.
