Breathing in 2021

December 30, 2020 Karen

There are meaningful, lyrical pieces written about hope, renewal and vaccination in the new year. This is not one of them.

Ease

March 8, 2020March 8, 2020 Karen

A few words about things taking the time they need, and yoga

March 2, 2019June 27, 2020 Karen

My first yoga class echoed with laughter as a friend and I twisted our bodies into awkward knots. We were young, at a gym to get a workout, and paid no attention to the meditative or relaxation parts of the class. A bit older, I lay on my mat in a library basement, no longer… Continue reading A few words about things taking the time they need, and yoga
