Christian yogi dancer, yogi dancer christian, or dancer yogi christian

Ever since I took yoga teacher training last summer, life has taken a much better turn. Not much has changed from the outside world but mostly my inner world has undergone an ongoing make over. It is becoming increasingly clear that, my inner world is muddled with unexpressed emotion, and my mood changes constantly, it can make myself, or any friend who gets close to me overwhelmed. And that I will never be as rational as some of my much admired friends are, they tend to remain calm and unruffled in spite of all the things spinning around. Picking up hobbies like dancing and bible reading is my way to engage the overly active mind, so I will not loss balance so often as to bug my friends all the time. Yet the greedy mind yearns for more and there are still more things inside is unsettled and restless, looking for more channels out, as if using a water hose to channel a flood. Writing journal is another way to channel out my pent up energy, or you may call it, excessive emotional energy.

Then, here comes yoga, it has mesmerized me with its gentleness, peace, love, and elegance. I am hooked. Ever since starting the teacher's training in June last year, I have been doing yoga almost daily without interruption till now even after the teacher's training was long finished. If anything else, an avid yogi is born. I can not see I will get tired of Yoga anytime soon, it grows up on me more each day. Along with my bible, yoga has been my life line.
