I haven't been around for a while, but trust me when I say a lot of good things are going on!
First off, Kripalu was AMAZING. I never thought I would be so into it, but it truly was amazing and life-changing. I want to go back again and furthermore, I want to pursue the path of becoming a yoga teacher, perhaps even dabble in some ayurvedic stuff. All my life, I've had different passions, whether it was art, theatre, writing, music, or cooking. I went to college for graphic design and by trade have been in the food industry since I was 14. There is no way I can make a decent career in the design world when everything isn't what college makes it seem like and as much as I love the food industry, I only have experience to back me up and no fancy diploma to wave around. I've always enjoyed yoga and meditation and alternative therapies, even more so while overcoming depression, anxiety, mania, and trauma. I like to think that if I could get through this tough time with yoga by my side, then anyone can, and I'd love to reach a hand out and help those people in need.
So that's my self-discovery thing. Granted, I'm not going to become a teacher overnight (LOLZ), but it's baby steps and the yoga community is a lot more docile than say, the baking community. And not like stay-at-home moms type of baking community, either. I'm still doing other things I love. I still write, still make art, still bake and cook... I never thought it was right to have a job or career define you. We as human beings have so much to do in life that can define who we are that isn't confined to a job.
Since I came back from Kripalu, I've been doing A LOT of yoga and meditation. I feel like a part of me has been asleep for many years and finally came back to life. All is well and I'm grateful for that.
Second off, when I'm not doing yoga and meditation and healthy cooking and so forth, I've been playing video games with my...

Second off, when I'm not doing yoga and meditation and healthy cooking and so forth, I've been playing video games with my boyfriend. He currently lives on the other side of the country, so playing games online is one of our favorite past times. With the summer sales that Steam has been having, we've been ALL over that. Just beat Borderlands last night and can't wait to dive into the DLC.
