I am preparing to move across country after living here in UT for 25 years. So, after making the decision, which was a lengthy and difficult process for me, things just began to fall into place. I still have those moments of doubt, like wondering if I will run into one of those spikes, but I continue on and each day brings me a step ahead and my heart is calmer and my soul is reaching higher. I had a moment today where I found myself smiling at these action I am performing, almost without thought now, and I smiled because I feel "in the Game" and it is joyful, exciting, and incredibly freeing.Annie Gamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09710984819627687490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8540195731025718534.post-40882686206448152602009-09-08T11:33:10.975-06:002009-09-08T11:33:10.975-06:00Thank you, Scott.

I am going through chemotherapy right now and I am trying to stay open to the fear of not knowing and opening up even more to this messy, unpredictable, joyful and mysterious adventure we call life.

Anytime I do something new that I'm fearful about, I just tell myself to be okay in my uncomfortable state. Doing this allows me to experience things just as there happening. In doing this I'm able to work through whatever it is in a nice and easy way.Brookenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8540195731025718534.post-30056634291624636272009-09-07T21:55:27.882-06:002009-09-07T21:55:27.882-06:00Thank you, everyone, for your beautiful sharing wi...Thank you, everyone, for your beautiful sharing with all of us on here, and being willing to close your eyes in the desert and run into the darkness.

I'm not your typical student from a physical standpoint, I came to yoga much later in life, I was carrying about 1000 pounbs of emotional baggage (okay maybe this last one isn't that different from others)...But yoga was truely a leap into the darkness for me. In the early days when I came to class, my hands would literally shake. Today my hands only shake when my arms are tired from all the upper body work you make me do. For that one magic moment three years ago, I was able to put aside my fears and walk up those steps into the studio and my life was transformed.<br /><br />SusanAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8540195731025718534.post-55609088538587922542009-09-07T13:15:37.814-06:002009-09-07T13:15:37.814-06:00I agree with the others.

I took a class this morning at Centered City that was warm and dark...two things I am often afraid of based on previous experiences. <br /><br />Early in my MS diagnosis, I had extreme heat sensitivity and balance issues. I would fall over when my eyes were closed, and start losing sensation in my hands and feet when I got too warm. <br /><br />In the class, eyes were closed for 99% of the class and the room was warm. I looked inward and let go of the fear of falling overheating. <br /><br />Three years into MS and my body is different and my body is different and today, I let go of the fear and let the energy in class, my breath and my movement show me the way.Courtney C.http://reversems.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8540195731025718534.post-1895705313282521232009-09-07T11:53:37.585-06:002009-09-07T11:53:37.585-06:00Scott everyman,
