Since returning from Yoga as Lifestyle Medicine II I have been trying to get my hands on as many bodies as possible, work the FMA (functional movement assessment), integrate this in with my way of being, essentially.  This client was the mother of my neighbor, and at the end of it she says, with tears in her eyes, “I really think this is going to help.”

I cannot adequately express how changed I am as a result of this program.  I left M8 with the mantra “why not me?”  Each module has facilitated a shift in me that was so fundamental, so necessary.  I unquestionably needed to get out of my own way before I could help anybody else.  It is still a process, but I have realized that the best way to progress is just that–to keep moving forward.

So thank you, Ginger.  Thank you for giving so tirelessly of yourself to better the lives of so many people.  I am forever changed, and forever grateful.
