Introduction
Hello, my name is Christy & I am on my personal journey to finding happiness & my place within this beautiful & intruiging thing we call Life.
What inspires you and brings you joy?
The many great interactions between people. Im inspired to bring that connectedness to light. I feel joy when I can interact with our community in ways to bring that connectedness together. I thrive on positive interactions & encouraging reinforcement.
What attracts you to yoga and meditation?
The ability to still the mind from its constant flow of unimportant feed & reactive emotions. Meditation has helped me ground myself to the present moment & learn to be calm & clear headed rather than jump to my reactive thoughts or behavior. Still learning how to exercise that idea, but its been a great journey finding multiple strategies. My family suffers from manic depression & relies heavily on her medications to "cure" her pain. I never want to rely on drugs as a means to mask my suffering. I want to learn from my own mind & body to find the means of dealing with my suffering.
What is your experience with yoga and meditation?
Ive been meditating for about 2 years now. I found a contemporary buddhist temple with a great sangha to help me along my journey. I joined a day retreat of meditation where we did a 5 hour meditation through sitting, walking, chanting, eating. Through them I have been recommended to numerous authors. I am fairly new to yoga, have been practicing different forms for the past 8 months.

Hi Christy, I really enjoyed reading your candid profile. Sounds like you're on a great path. I look forward to meeting you in the park soon! I'm teaching a yoga/meditation
retreat for women in Sedona this weekend, but you'll be in good hands with my sub if you go tomorrow. Perhaps we'll meet next week?
Kind regards,
