I believe in the principle of impermanence. Eventually, this virus will pass, as I have seen wars and other terrible threats pass in my lifetime, and we will have the opportunity to rebuild our global community as we have done many times before.
At this time of uncertainty, it is important that we do not lose hope and confidence in the constructive efforts so many are making.

Be kind to yourself.
You may not be perfect,
but you are all you've got to work with.
The process of becoming who you will be
begins first with the total acceptance
of who you are.

Yoga is always done barefoot because our feet need air and sensory stimulation. Shoes are considered a 'torture chamber' by yoga instructors. Here's what yoga pioneer Richard Hittleman says about the wearing of shoes:
"We must also say a word about the torture chambers in which the feet of most workers are encased during the workday. These are e known as 'shoes'. There is no doubt that most shoes have a damaging effect on the feet...It is best to walk without shoes as much as possible in your home and barefoot in your garden, in the country and at the beach."
