noun
- a corner or recess, esp. one offering seclusion or security.
In an attempt to declutter and make a few household modifications, I developed a little nook in our room. It's my little quiet spot of serenity for prayer, meditation and yes, Yoga!
I actually have fond memories of my mom's regular Yoga routines in the front room as she would do her Salutation to the Sun as well as breathing and calming stretches. Then, about 13 years ago I witnessed a former Hindu Priestess describe Yoga as a very negative channeling of bad spirits. Based on her testimony, I dismissed Yoga for over a decade. Now that I'm finding more balance and compassion in my life's journey, I have recently discovered the amazing benefits of Yoga.
This is one of my favorite Yoga instructors that I welcome to my little incense filled, candlelit nook:
