Gluteal pain -- in physical therapy

I have been off regular yoga classes, but continued my yoga therapy on my own and since last Sunday the pain had subsided quite a bit. It was helping but not eliminating the pain. My physician suggested physical therapy. I was fortunte to find a therapist who is a also a certified anusura yoga teacher and has also done a fair amount of Iyengar. I had an enlightening meeting with her today. I have been so absorbed with the elections and work, I have no energy to write about my experience today with her, but it was eye opening and it gave me a deeper appreciation of being a yogi and being self aware of my body and my muscles and what I have been doing to self correct the problems I am having. She has given me two exercises and within 15 minutes of doing those exercises I felt even better. I have become even more self aware since this morning. Not to become too philosophical about this, but yoga does do the body good, but self awareness does the soul even better. May your day bring you much peace and love, as no money in the world can buy you that. It comes from self awareness!

Namaste
