'Yoga Lotus'

February 2004


This mandala is dedicated to the Yoga exercises that I learned from an Indian women, Sagar. I was very grateful to her that she took the time and patience to teach me to move my body.

At the time I had a lot of pains in my joints and I was scared that I had arthritis in my hip. My father had an operation on his hips and I was scared that I inherited this illness.

Sagar helped me to move my hips again. Every day she came and encouraged me to try. And it worked!

Now I do not feel the pain anymore; I got really excited to move my body, to relax into the strechting and to feel the pleasure of feeling flexible again.

I call it Easy Yoga and I do it sometimes in my groups. I discovered that it helps to warm up the body, and that people become more open to feelings and experience less strain in their voices and muscles.

As a daily routine I love it and it brings a smile on my face. This special hour in the morning - to dedicate to myself.
