Is having my face in a stranger's crotch really helpful for my meditative state?
  • The headline made me laugh.

    I have been doing Iyengar yoga for years and I, too, experience a bit of dread everytime my teacher announces we're going to do some partner yoga. Part of my hesitation is that my reaction feels a bit highschool-ish. Who am I going to work with? I scan the room, is anyone looking at me? Anyone specifically not looking at me? Oh, I got the very short person and I'm tall and well, that's going to be a bit awkward.

    I like the author's decision at the end of the article. It's an authentic one.
