An oppurtunity to Change
|
Continuity gives us roots; change gives us branches, letting us stretch and grow and reach new heights. ~Pauline R. Kezer |
I didn’t know I either wanted or needed change. That is, until it offered itself. And, often, it isn’t until we make a change, that we realize how much it was needed. This is true in many facets of life. If we sit with poor posture, it often isn’t until we stand up from that position that we realize it may not have been an ideal way to sit. I do this quite often. I have a habit of sitting in a chair with one leg tucked underneath me. It’s quite comfortable. Until I stand, realize my foot has gone numb, and any weight put through it causing pain to shoot through my leg. Oops.
When I heard Janet was looking for a physical therapist to join her at evolution my heart jumped. I ran into the kitchen to share this news with my husband. “Great!” he said. He never posed the statement that everyone else did, “I thought you liked your job.” I did like my job. But here was an opportunity to change. To grow. To stretch and reach new heights. The continuity of my past 12 years as a physical therapist has given me the roots, the foundation, for my work. evolution has offered opportunity to teach more yoga classes, to connect with this community, to grow.
I’m looking forward to growing here. To incorporating yoga even more into my physical therapy practice. To continuing to teach “Yoga for a Healthy Back” but also teaching a community class. To working with yogis and also introducing new people to the practice of yoga. So whether you have an injury and need a physical therapist who will understand your active lifestyle, you want to learn ways to use yoga to decrease back pain, or you just want to come to an easy to moderately paced yoga class, I’ll see you here, at evolution.
Peace,
Alison
