I'm so sorry to hear of your accident. I'm glad you're still with us and on the mend. Sending you wishes for a full recovery.

My mother-in-law had been in terrible pain and later she told me she felt no pain when he played that piece for her. He was 9 years old. Makes me cry every time I hear that song.
I just got teary eyed reading this! I'm sure your MIL was very touched and grateful that your son played that song just for her.

All the posts are so touching. I had the most tears during Jessica's video about Peanut. Then for a few videos afterwards, I choked up a bit when I did an older you tube workout with Peanut. It reminded me of my fur babies who have passed on.

I remember a Christi Taylor hi-lo video where one of the backgrounders got ill and died the next day. It was hard to do that video after knowing about that.

So many moving stories!

I get very sad when I do a workout by Seasun Zieger since she ended her own life. She seemed to be such a gentle and vibrant spirit.

I feel the same. I saw something on twitter that brought me to her profile. I still can’t believe what happened. I had interacted with her a few times because we have kids with similar ages.

I often wonder how her boys are today.

lilias Folan = Lillias Yoga PBS teacher. I broke down inconsolable . She reminds me so much of my mother- her size, hair, face-just very similar to my mother. I just cannot do her workouts. Especially her kindness.gets right to my broken heart.

I actually had to stop doing Ali MacGraw Yoga Mind & Body (with Eric Schiffman) because of the end of shavasana when he says "for love is what's left when you let go of everything you don't need." It just makes me completely sob.

It's a beautiful sentiment, and I still think of it often, but I just can't handle the flood of emotions after a yoga practice.
