I seem to be going through a somewhat emotionally cathartic week, tonight I decided I must pick up yoga again.

It's been so long; how can something become daily and then fade away until t seems strange to do it at all?! ( hope that's what N-relating does come to think of it...)

Who else does yoga here?

What's the best way to get back into it?

I haven't done it but a gal came into my store and says she is starting a similar program called Praise Moves.  It can be found at praisemoves.com........she told me that Yoga moves are new-agey.......I really know nothing of them other than downward dog......from another class I was in........but apparently they are the same moves but when you do a move, there is a Bible verse to recite while you are in that movement.....I need something......I am so chubby!

I'll check out the 'praise moves' though I can't see that it's any less daft  than new age stuff frankly! I read the Bible quite a lot and texts from other faiths, they do help with spiritual balance.

I picked up a book last night which I bought by accident ( or was it...! ) four years ago, there's some useful prayers in that which I really liked.

And already this morning I was so strong at work today, we did an excellent group and then i went to see the manager to tell the universe I need more stability and financial security...there's a post which I would like not there but with her friend, a real challenge which I know I can be good at and would be good for me right now.

I have no permanence in my life & it's affecting everything...I'm even too afraid to grow a plant these days in case it's too much responsibility down the line!

I need to anchor in and deal with the rest of my emotions about my divorce.

Maybe I need reading yoga not doign yoga; this book isn't new age well except for the concept of chakras itself I guess.
