Yoga.

It means unity. It has united me with myself, with pregnant women in Nicaragua, with an Incan artist in Peru, with teenagers from the US, with Machu Picchu, with floors of many international airport terminals and with myriad enclaves and people of the world. The exercise itself is secondary to the joining of mind, spirit and culture that the medium provides. It cures headaches and heartache, backace and longing. It aliviates judgement and anxiety and builds supportive community with every breath.
