Same poses. Everything was different.
Same downward dog, warrior, triangle. When ethical awareness informs physical practice, everything transforms.
What transforms your practice from exercise to something deeper?

When everyone moved into headstand, I stayed in child's pose. My body wanted rest.
Most of my practice happens in my apartment, just me and Luna. No witnesses. That's where the real work happens.
