In Stretch Neal Pollack says lots of things I think and quietly keep to myself about this strange bird of yoga flying into this modern world.

I’ve noticed that as much as I love and value yoga, I have actually been avoiding it! I have a lot of hip tightness and pain. I knew yoga should be the key to addressing this, but I couldn’t seem to make it to the mat. Then I realized that there may be some deeper emotional issues bound up in that hip pain. So, this comment is about recognizing the sometimes complicated role yoga can play in our lives- a helpful tool, but also like a loving friend who may need to help you face some painful realities… we must be open to becoming open.
WOW, thank you for sharing Amy. This is very thoughtful. ❤
