TSADA CALENDAR YOGIS & YOGINIS
MEET THERESA ~ TSADA'S SEPTEMBER 2007 YOGINI
And the Journey Begins….
My first introduction to yoga was in 2004. A year I will
never forget. On New Year’s Day 2004, my husband of 25 years, died of a
massive heart attack while working out. The previous week I received the
tragic news that my mother’s breast cancer had spread to her lungs and was
inoperable. After three months of intensive treatment I lost her to
cancer in April 2004. Talk about your world spinning out of control.
That’s when my search began to find a calm center in the middle of this
massive emotional storm.
I knew I was on to something the day I meet Chinook. He
had something I wanted and it wasn’t just his leopard yoga bag. I was
drawn to his energy and insight. At the time of our first meeting, my
daughter was playing basketball for SMU and Chinook was working his yoga
magic on the team to help prevent future injuries. Being the curious mom
that I am, I jumped right in with the team. That’s all it took to get me
hooked.
The first couple of years my yoga practice were sporadic
to say the least. In June 2007 I took a huge leap of faith by moving to
Dallas, letting go of the past and embracing yoga as a daily practice.
Moving to Dallas has not only allowed me to be closer to my children but
also has given me the blessing of practicing my yoga at the best studio in
the world. Tasda is a spiritual sanctuary for me. It’s the real deal. Not
just the yoga “flavor of the month”. When my friends ask me what kind of
yoga I do, my response is, “The Best”.
Yoga has transformed me in more ways than I ever imagined possible. Sure
the physical strength I now have is awesome. But it’s only the icing on
the cake. By quieting my mind and listening I have discovered inner
strengths that far outweigh the physical. For me yoga is a body, mind and
soul connection where I can embrace harmony, peace and joy. Through my
practice I’m uncovering and claiming my true essence and purpose in life.
So what if it only took me 50 years. The next 50 are going to be the
BEST………because Life is Meant to be GOOD!
Wishing you all love, light and lot’s of laughter.
Namaste’ ~
Theresa
