Q & A: YOGA BAD FOR YOU?!

hey coach,

was just on mountainbike.com and in their Boulder Report, they mention yoga and it not being a competitive sport. just thought i would point you in the direction of it because it gives yet another lead from the new york times apparently (which i couldn’t access, but maybe you can). the article in new york times is apparently saying that yoga is being thought to be more and more harmful. more or less goes down to people getting injured in yoga classes. i think it would be an interesting article (just for reference sake) b/c apparently there are alot of yoga teachers who, unlike you, are having injured students. let me know what you find out!

love,

student tim

Noble Student Tim –

do not worry about such articles.

there have been and will be many more of such blankets thrown over

the drum of what is Real.

the “wave” of yoga that is currently sweeping America

and offers such things as Weekend Yoga Teaching Certifications

and �franchise opportunities�

and other such lower chakra blabber

shall soon pass.

when the glitz fades

like all other ancient Arts,

a core of wise warriors shall remain

smiling as ever as the commerical tide ebbs.

so too, will their

Teachers of high integrity.

Student Tim

just keep true to Your Practice

and let the outer world

chatter on and on

and on

and

on

“Here is the new rule: break the wineglass,

and fall toward the glassblower’s breath.”

– Rumi

we have an ocean to explore within

WF and HP Yoga…

let us in-Joy that for Now.

i bow to your caring and loving kindness…

love endlessly,

your feeble coach ilg
