Still sick ... what's a person to
do?

I have now started week 4 with the same set of
symptoms, fortunately less severe than before, but
nonetheless still there. What's a person to
do? Rest,
rest and more rest. I have been astounded
 by
how clearly my body tells me it is done for the day, so
for a change, I am choosing to listen, act on it and see
what comes of that. I've also chosen to start a
video diary of my healing process ... more to follow as
my video recorder keeps crashing, so I can't download
what I've recorded. Never seems to be a shortage
of opportunities to share with you! Read on and
send me an email if you attend something that you
like.
Sincerely,  | | |

So there are two controversies brewing throughout
the country.
- Should
yoga schools be licensed by the state?
- Should
sales tax be collected on yoga and meditation
classes?
Click the links above to access recent
New York Times articles detailing the differing perspectives
between state governments' need to earn revenue and the yoga
community.
I find that I am still uncertain where I
fall on this debate. I believe in the need to recognize the
difference between being taught by a yoga teacher with a
weekend credential versus a teacher with many years of
experience. I believe in the need to obtain proper liability
insurance, business licenses and the other associated costs of
being in business, which is loosely followed by the yoga
community. At the same time, I have a concern that
certification by a governmental agency will result in the loss
of the individualized expression of the mind-body-spirit
connection that is experienced between each teacher and each
student and thereby result in even more injuries.
What
do you think? I welcome your thoughts.
