Two weeks ago, I decided to try to return to daily yoga practice. All I asked of myself was one sun salutation. One night about a week ago, the asthma was so bad I couldn't manage even that, so I did a few seated and prone poses.
Just two weeks, and my back has stopped aching, my head is clearer, I'm sleeping better, my stress levels are down. I took a fantastic yoga class with my parents over the weekend, and have now decided to add a weekly class to my own solitary practice.
If this is what two weeks can do, what about two months? Two years? Two decades? This could be quite an interesting experiment.

Last night I had the strangest dream I've ever had before: I dreamed the world had all agreed to put an end to war.

When feminism does not explicitly oppose racism, and when antiracism does not incorporate opposition to patriarchy, race and gender politics often end up being antagonistic to each other and both interests lose.
