gracefulness with yoga

looking out my window the sky is blue, but there is a chill in the air.
I went to my Dr the other day and everything is  A ok  after that James and I  brought two new shirts for winter, the shop assistant  complimented me no end on how petite I was  I felt proud  and embarrassed  actually . I said thank you  and said it is yoga ! people are also asking have I lost weight ! or you cant get any thinner even though I eat the same and I am a healthy weight all I say its yoga , yoga has put the unwanted fat where it should  naturally go . my yoga  DVD  is always going on about gracefulness and I have been thinking how does that work, how does that go with yoga ? it has been in my face all along , in my eyes yoga is the definition of gracefulness .
yoga  keeps you supple, makes you feel beautiful , even if us girls don't feel it half the time. yoga does all this and helps us carry ourselves well. my mum says I have to  accept getting older and expect  to get the symptoms of old age mum say stop fighting it we all have to grow old sometime, but you can grow old gracefully ! we have a book  by a woman  who is in her eighties  and still does the lotus, the headstand and all the advanced asanas  {yoga poses } with the flexibility of a young girl.
people  automatically assume  once you  are over a certain age that's it , they call this the downhill slide, but here's the thing , if you do yoga  you will never ever lose your flexibility . and  us for us girls we will always keep our figure and for the men they will always keep their physique .  and the gracefulness yoga gives. so I am not fighting ageing I will be maturing and growing old gracefully .
yoga is a gift if you keep up yoga, you will be set for life.








Namaste.
