It can be so easy to fall into an exercise trend - plenty of DVDs, books, classes, blogs, and retreats. Yet there are countless practices to bring us into embodiment.
And everything can be made sacred.

A whole-body movement that stirred a primitive stone deep within my soul. A movement that, after basic proficiency, had zero concept of improvement.

....
dancing, hiking, bike riding.
En-
joy-ment.
And what else could we consider? Drumming, fencing, trampolining, roller blading, belly-dancing, horse-riding, kayaking, abseiling, hula hooping, Frisbee, physically active volunteering....
After 10+ years of 'giving it a go', I'm hanging up my yoga mat. And there, look, I made a space to let in authentic goodness.
