Share the Hope

Lisa Kohn’s memoir of being raised in and torn between two conflicting worlds.

your body follows your eyes

your body follows your eyes

Again yoga. Again something beautiful to hear and take in. How often do I say that? Of course the instructor was talking about our yoga poses. Look with your eyes where and how you want your body to move and be, and it will. If not now, then eventually. And of course,...
