CHOOSING YOUR LANE
Choosing your lane.
My yogi friends… here we are in this new world of isolation and social distancing, trying on new ways of being and doing. That includes how, why and where we practice.
Yeah you can buy a yoga DVD or plug into some robotic app that’ll talk you through a guided basic programme or flow. You could even tune into the latest Z list celebrity in their sponsored yoga pants.

More on overcoming hard choices…Don’t resist
The devil is not in the detail, it’s in the denial.
Resistance is our enemy. That’s what author, Steven Pressfield tells me in his book, The War of Art.
Resistance is there any time it comes to making that first step – to meditate, take a yoga class, eat right, pursue a new career, end a relationship, pop the question, write a blog or any activity that rejects an instant fix in favour of long term growth, health or wellbeing.
