“Resilience/Resurrection: Xanthorrhoea after Bushfire”,

Watercolour, watercolour pencil, ceramic glaze and ink on paper.
My mandala speaks of the spirit of Baiame, the soul of Australia- the power of resilience in the face of adversity.
“For a yogi, Backbends are meant to invert the mind, to observe and to feel-first the back, then the consciousness and the very seer”- B.K.S. Iyengar #yoga #iyengaryoga #sapiens #backbends #dhanurasana #FitnessSky #YogaSky
Thanks so much! I was an overweight teenager and spent many years in addiction so I feel pretty darn blessed and pleased to be where I am now health-wise!
48 this year and feeling better in my body than ever! #FitnessSky #gym #LGBTIQ #pan #recovery #fitover40
I don’t weigh myself. It’s a poor metric, as they say.
Aah that makes sense! You’re doing amazing btw. It’s great being fitter in my 40’s than I was in my 20’s.

I wouldn’t say arduous. There was more tools than I was capable of integrating in the time. Probably because haven’t done much writing in a long time. I am very grateful for the opportunity to work learn and practice. Discomfort is often the best place for me to stay.

I wrote this poem this morning at the Feral Angels Poetry Cafe @hironstom.bsky.social
I felt rather inadequate in the group of very experienced writers but I’m quite happy with the #poem #poetry

I practiced yoga while high. I did a Women’s silent Buddhist meditation retreat, fully present and engaged, then went and got on. It definitely didn’t stop me using. Only rehab 12 steps did that.
This is gorgeous I love it
