In reply to Sérgio. Thank Sergio. You are welcome to come to Bali any time, but for someone who has an interest in teaching Mysore style practice, I strongly recommend developing your practice under Sharathji's guidance. I'll see you again here or there ;)

Hi Iain,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience in Mysore and more importantly (for me) your inner journey explorations (not sure how else to put it). It is always valuable to learn about someone else’s insight.
All the best,
Marya

Thank you for sharing. Since the first times I read your posts I value your insights and your exposure coming from your clear and honest understanding. This read enhanced my interest in going back to study thoroughly with Sharathji. But also of course, I felt I would love to be back to your classes. Be well! Thank you

In reply to Iain Grysak.

That was super useful Iain, thank you very much for responding. Oh, one thing more…in case you find ( or decide to make it yourself ) green pea tempeh or chickpea tempeh, do give it a try 😀 You might find it’s taste more appealing than the regular, stinky soy one hehe. I’m a celiac and dairy protein enzyme deficient and with lots of reactivity ( kombucha is also a big no no no for me ) to most of the foods since birth. Karmic, genetic, or a combination of both and maybe something third 🙂 One thing is sure, minimizing stress factors and maximizing good quality, organic, plant based foods seems to keep my gut health and thus overall health, optimal. And L-glutamine deserves a respectful mention here along with aloe vera leaf.

In reply to Tammy Reis. It's great to hear from you Tammy! I miss all of you as well and I am continuously inspired to know that you still practice together after so many years :) Please pass on my greetings to Anna. I was practicing there on my most recent trip to Burlington in April and enjoyed her space very much.

Happy New Year dear Iain!

I am visiting Ontario for the holiday season and was able to carve out some time to read your most recent post after a nice practice with Anna at Steeltown Yoga. It was a pleasure to read your inspiring words as I continue to deepen my practice of the primary series. The long trip across the country to be in Ontario to visit family over the holidays has definitely taken me out of my routine and I can feel it. I appreciated your thoughts on what has made your practice sustainable and healthy as you age and I look forward to hearing more about your thoughts on diet. It is important to me to have a life long yoga practice. Your continued guidance through your posts is helpful to me.

I miss you, think of you often and wish you all the best in 2020!

From cold, dark Canada,

Tammy
