They do often say that, but for so long I did not listen.

I participated in a mala once — 108 sun salutations — mixed A&B. I didn’t even try to keep up. I left the room a couple of times, took child’s pose or simply stretched. I will never be an iron woman. Do you know what that is? 2 1/2 mile swim — 112 mile bike — 26 mile run. Those people have some serious fortitude. What yoga taught me above all else is to listen to myself.
