I love this post. Too much of me wants to leap into things, like across precipices. Not realistic, not a way that fosters growth. And the freedom of movement you mention— so real and lovely. I am a newbie to Substack, though not to writing — I love both the freedom of it and the discipline. I didn’t used to put those two words together, but they are very good friends. Thanks for the layers in this, Andrea. I will return to it. I know it!
Yes! Practicing yoga daily gave me the courage to quit my tech job and finally write my debut speculative fiction novel. I am grateful for practice and Andrea 🙌🧘♀️

I'm so happy you enjoyed the essay, Joan! And I love the friendship of freedom and discipline -- so true!
I, too, have always found Andrea "compellingly honest" and been in awe of her yoga feats. Lovely article.
Yes! And glad you enjoyed it, Jordan!
Love love love!
