Paro, Bhutan. Half way up is a cafeteria with great views of Tiger’s Nest, but it pales in comparison to the view from the top and the experience of visiting the 8 temples. I met a group of ladies coming down when I was going up. They only went to the cafeteria, saying their legs were too weak to continue up. This made me sad for them, coming all this way to Bhutan only to stop 45 minutes before reaching the top. My yoga and Pilates practices keeps my legs, core and upper body trekking-ready, ski-ready, daily-functional-movement-ready. I don’t prep for a trek. I practice daily - so I’m just ready for whatever life’s experience is before me. I don’t get out of shape then back into shape. It’s a way of life, and when I’m 78-years-old like the ladies I met, I will summit the mountain, I will zip down powder-covered slopes, and I will move and challenge my body and mind daily. Join me tru-yoga.com. Make the practice part of your life - so you can embrace and enjoy all that life brings. Thank you for the wonderful day even though we got caught in the rain on the way down!
