lb the editor:
.Beginning last Friday, there will
be free Kundalini Yoga at East
Street Station from 6:00-7:15 am
every morning. Everyone is wel-
come to come whether you have
ever done yoga before.
Please forward this invitation to
ANYONE who is needing healing
right now. God 'mows we have to
start processing what has hap-
pened and what we are living
through now.
Everyday, I wake up surprised
that we really had a tornado.
1 live on Picton Street East
across from the lumber yard --
one of the hard-hit areas, so our
view is very sad. My heart is so
heavy for everyone who has lost
so much -- homes, jobs, stability,.
and so much more. We were very
lucky (Jur home only sustained
minimal damage.
There are so many wonderful
things every day - - the wonderful
people who come and clean up
and move trees and debris, the
people who bring food and drinks
to the volunteers, the hydro and
gas crews who work around the
clock getting our lives back to
something normal, the police
who keep us safe, and the very
fact that we are even alive to clean
up the mess.1 am so thankful.
And yet, things are so hard. As
we are busy cleaning up, talking
to adjusters and contractors,
someone says something and we
well up with tears. We see one of
our neighbours getting ready to
demolish their house and we well
up. We are burying the trauma of
the storm until one day when we
can process it. We have "survi-
vor's guilt" - whys my house
standing when other's aren't?
Every time we look around, eve-
rything : is wrong. There is no
green. We don't know how to
process this.
I have always thought of the
station as a place of healing -nand
I haven't known yet how it will
help us through.
But as the days wear on, 1 find
tnyself very etnotional (and feel-
ing the urge to throttle anyone
with a camera). I find it hard to.

know how to act in the day, what to do
first and what to think.
And I've reali7.ed that 1 need some-
thing to help me process this -- body,
mind, and spirit, And so 1 am going to
start holding yoga every morning at the
station from 6 -- 7:1 Sam.
I find Kundalini yoga very healing. This
m o rning yoga & meditation is for all of
us. We all need something to help us find
ourwayeach day as many of our lives sit
in :some form of limbo. And even if we
haven't personally been directly affected
by the tornado, it is still upsetting and
shocking when our friends and neigh-
bours are going through such tragedy.
EVERYONE needs help through this.
Please forward this invitation on to
ANYONE who needs help.
You don't have to come every day - just
the days that you want to. 'there is no
obligation - it's just for you.
You don't need to know anything
about yoga. Just wear comfortable
clothes, a blanket and just follow along.
There is no hydro at the station. It will
be by candlelight.
Our eyes are closed when we do yoga.
We can cry. We can process. We can start
to heal.
Please come. Please bring your friends
and family.
Let's .start to heal together.
