I agree with you, and I see how you can feel skeptical, I am still skeptical myself about many aspects of yoga and probably will be until I have read enough to satisfy that doubt.<br /><br />Without yoga though I do not think that I would be enjoying the vastly improved physical and mental wellness that I do now but... While I can with certainty say, yes, yoga did help me gain back control of my body, it was not the single factor in this process. Additionally I do not think that "it" healed me but rather gave me the tools to heal myself. I think that this is closer to your statement that it can help and facilitate change.<br /><br />Yoga does make you feel great and I'm sure that there are issues with this being confused for demonstrating greater benefits. However, I feel that this is very important and I know that it helped me to overcome negativity and perhaps the feeling of being physically disassociated with myself. I don't think that there is any other "activity" that can match yoga in this, especially for those with physical and/or mental limitations.<br /><br />This is most certainly a can of worms and I will stop now.<br /><br />Thank you for the acknowledgement! I too am super excited!!Elizabeth Pratthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17325134434157312276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4653746071499110538.post-12094026453604224572012-03-01T18:13:53.190-08:002012-03-01T18:13:53.190-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Elizabeth Pratthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17325134434157312276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4653746071499110538.post-68123161997488584352012-03-01T11:30:57.182-08:002012-03-01T11:30:57.182-08:00Me too!Me too!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
