When it got really tough, I would go ing?” I decided to go to a Sivananda Yoga class atinto the center of my chest, and I would meet with my friend who theYWCAin Stamford, Connecticut. I stoppedwould soothe and connect me to something that I had no words smoking, slept better, and had more energy.for. And that’s where I would heal. How did your television show come about? IThat’s yoga from a very young age. That’s how I came to the would watch Richard Hittleman’s shows inplanet. But as a teenager, I forgot about my friend. Then I had a black and white with two beautiful, perfectmajor crisis and thought, “I can solve this. I’ll go back inside.”When women demonstrating postures. I thought, “II did, I couldn’t find my friend. Yoga brought me back to this inner could do that better.” Then, the wife of a localfriend that’s always been there. Yoga brought me home again. PBS producer took my yoga class. She told her husband I would be perfect for a TV show. How did it feel to be a part of something so groundbreaking? I got very good schooling from Sri Swami Chidananda, a teacher in the Sivananda lineage, and some wise teachers like Angela Farmer, Goswami Kriyananda, and Dr. Jean Houston. Their advice was that this was service. Don’t hold on to the fruits of your actions—people writing in and being recognized in the streets, that kind of thing. It became and still is a practice. It’s my sadhana. Do you ever worry about how much yoga has grown since you started your show? Losing its connection to the mystics of the past of India? No. It will be what it will be. I really do think that all is well. Joy belongs to everyone. What motivated you to write your book, Yoga Gets Better with Age? I wanted to share my journey. I’m in a 70-years-young body, and I do my yoga practice differently. Certain postures don’t mean as much to me anymore, but other ones do.The essence of the book is to show how to work intelligently with a midlife body and beyond in a way that’s pain free. ✤188 yogajournal.com February 2010 www.storemags.com & www.fantamag.com
