actually, I don't do any yoga
I've just been told and have heard numerous times how it can be so helpful. thought maybe it could be helpful for you
.
I actually fear it
... the tension that traumas have left my body with since a tiny child has resulted in this body not able to stretch at all! I've found instructors to be quite unkind to me as they think I'm not even trying,(and then they push the already pained body-- been told females are naturally more limber and also been told I have a gymnast's physique) when in reality my body is screaming in pain from the slightest stretching..... I've not found yoga to feel good or to be relaxing-- just the opposite in fact!
.. but, again-- as i hear of it helping so many-- just thought I'd mention it for you.
I wish there was a specific yoga for bodies traumatized long-term
"
I wholly enjoy your fish-themed name" ---- Thanks! I LOVE to swim, love water--pools, lakes, rivers, oceans-- any water! and well-- I also like the color purple-- it's soothing to me.
and your name-?-- are "fishsandwiches" your favorite food?
I hope you find a direction towards healing
Let us know how you're doing!
