Ah … I hear everyone talk about how many genres (she dabbles in) like classical, jazz and others, but personally, I don’t divide music by genre when creating. I don’t create by saying, ‘I must create a classical piece here,’ or ‘I must create a jazz piece here.’ When I create music, I don’t consider at all which genre I like best, but what the scene or the anime calls for, like a love (theme) or a mood. There isn’t one genre I like more than the others. I find all of them satisfying and all inspire me in different ways.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

It’s unrelated but related in terms of embracing diversity – and that I appreciate all different styles of yoga … depending on where I am when I am off the mat. “All of them satisfying and all inspire me in different ways.” yes. It’s the vibration – of consciousness. I resist labeling but at the heart is the sun and the moon.<\/p>\n

Most of us who love yoga came to yoga not purely for physical reasons – if you want the physical stuff – get sweaty and burn calories (yes, a slice of cheesecake is so rich…), there are plenty of other activities in many forms of exercise, so it doesn’t necessarily have to be yoga but then, why? There are whole hosts of other options – simply go out and walk, jog, hit balls, dance …some of us may even engage in a more extreme and challenging forms of fitness – climb Mt. Everest ? be a Triathlon, ski, golf, even, wrestle – whatever you love – it’s all good. What then, drew us to yoga? <\/p>\n
