I’m going to sound like a crazy person but I need to document it anyway. I was at yin yoga tonight. Nothing too crazy, a few chest openers, back bends, and hip openers. But I felt everything so deeply. In child’s pose my shoulders felt so heavy. Intuitively I knew it’s because I don’t let shit go. In seal pose I could barely hold myself up without tensing up. Sounds familiar. And then during the twists I could feel myself starting to open up but not really. Close but not quite. So I focused on following the sensation and breathing into the blocked space. Slowly it started to open. I was so grateful. We ended the practice in savasana and I swear to God I felt a very specific but unnamable warm sensation begin to wash over me. At first I resisted, but then I tried to just be and surrender. I felt it wrap itself around me. It was so familiar but I couldn’t recognize it. Just an energy that showed me so much love, warmth, and acceptance. It gave me a kiss and held my open hands. I became overcome with emotion, I started to cry a little out of relief. And then I heard a message that everything would be ok and I just had to trust.
