That sounds intriguing! I'll put that on my reading list. I'm currently reading the Tawny Man trilogy which is the sequel of the Farseer Trilogy written by Robin Hobb. While the story has the general traits of a fantasy novel, the author is very good at developing characters and plots and different types of magic. The main character is able to bond to an animal but this type of magic is generally depised and harshly punished. This means that under the telling of the story, there are more layers dealing with prejudice, ethics, etc.

A book which has very much inspired and touched me is The inhabited woman by Gioconda Belli. It is the (love) story of a young woman during the revolution in Nicaragua who gets infused by the spirit of an ancient woman warrior and who then leaves her sheltered life to try to help free her country from oppression.

Pure bliss! And using blocks under the elbows in Sphinx is perfect because Seal is still too much for my back.

Did this yesterday and enjoyed it very much. I even managed to place my hand on my back in Tumbling Tortoise aaaah ... Rolling Panda. 😄

I LOVE the app! It is much easier to go through the practices and find exactly the right one for any given day. I also very much enjoy the community updates.

A combination of building strength and Yoga/stretches works best for me.

My body and sore muscles really needed this today. ❤️

Rolling Panda. My first attempts ended in something like Tumbling Turtoise and even when I managed not to fall over, it didn't feel relaxing at all. Today was the first time I really enjoyed this pose.

Amazing practice for my stiff neck and shoulders. This was also the first time I could really relax in Rolling Panda.

I tend to draw up my shoulders under stress. This practice helped a lot to soften my shoulders again.
