To pass some time …
let’s consider the body, yours and mine, the same way we once considered food.
Before there was inorganic food everything grown was organic.
Similarly, before we started “working” on our bodies, there was a natural body that we simply lived in.
Just as it occurred to someone to infuse crops with chemicals to make them bigger and pest resistant, it occurred to someone to alter their natural body in order to make some parts of it bigger and other parts smaller.
These “bigger” and “smaller” parts were then infused with meaning to create value.
You may have to go pretty far back in your memory to remember the natural body you inhabited before you started believing in having a “good” or a “bad” body, but that inner knowing remains, buried under an avalanche of habits, beliefs and repetitive affirmations, some positive, most negative.
Today is #WorldFoodDay , a day to focus on the importance of food security around the world.
We are beyond grateful to our friends at Organic Soup Kitchen which has been a staple in our studio for years. The soup kitchen ensures that low-income cancer patients will receive the immune-recovery support they need. Organic, plant-based Soup Meals are hand-delivered throughout the Santa Barbara community, bringing oncology-based nutrition and kindness directly to clients’ doors. They do it for the love.
Did you know that Yoga Soup may not have been possible without Anthony Carraccio of Organic Soup Kitchen?
No Anthony– no Yoga Soup.
Here’s #breadcrumb about how our studio came to be, from Eddie:
Someone recently asked me who the guy in the picture was and why is the wall it’s hanging on painted orange?
Since some of you have never, and might never, visit the studio I thought I’d share a brief history.
