I was trying to force my life into a specific shape, and the only way to do that was by melting me, shrinking me, breaking me. None of it worked. In yoga philosophy, what I was struggling with has a name: Aparigraha.
The best practice for those moments when an anxiety wave hits and you don't know what to do is the one guided by the best teacher: you.
I started yoga in a cold Amsterdam sports hall, following a class in Dutch I didn't understand, while quietly living through my first panic attack. 14 years later, I'm still on the mat.
