Thankyou, Prana Flow, for wonderful, inspiring articles.
Many years ago, I used to take N.A. Meetings into Arohata prison…I was clean and sober, and really felt I was serving, in a good way-since, I have experienced deep depression, rabid active addiction, and wished I would go to jail, to experience the peace and safety of being in a cell.
But, I have been practicing Yoga, in a group, twice weekly for the last couple of years, and it is my rock.It is the only time I feel connected, in my body, in the moment, and saying “yes” to life.
I trust it will lead me to my true destiny-perhaps community living, an ashram, a kibbutz, its just something I feel!
Thank you for sharing your story.

Hey Gisele,
Adhyatma certainly has an inspiring story to tell – as do we all in many ways.
Yoga especially does have so much to offer us, especially when life gets really tough. Keep practicing, and even consider starting to do a little bit at home by yourself. It’s amazing how much you can remember when you give it a go, and how good it makes you feel.
Thanks for sharing your story too 🙂
Much joy,
KL
