Eek.


You Want Me to What?

I am having my photograph taken tomorrow. The Yoga studio where I teach has lovely art shots of its teachers. Slim, bendy women dressed in white and exhibiting various poses against black backgrounds adorn the walls. I am apparently to join them, though I am not of the traditional slim, willowy, Yogic build. I am also to don whites and run through various poses for posterity.

White. Dressed in white. Clingy, cellulite-exposing white. The photographer assures me that miracles can be performed with lighting. I know I should let go of vanity and glory in the practice, without thinking about what it looks like. And yet.

I am experiencing fear.
