Heat it. Heal it. Write it.
Hot yoga is alchemy.
Alchemy: the Medieval science of changing ordinary metals into gold, a power or process that transforms something in a mysterious or impressive way
Not coincidentally, it often required high heat.
Writing is that same process: one part you, preferably heated, and one part magic. Writing, like hot yoga. scratches the surface of your experiences and gets down underneath. Writing makes wisdom from words; it just takes a pen to draw you out and like hot yoga, you start from where you are, right now.
What happens when you add writing to hot yoga?
