RE: Introduction of a Norwegian yogi to Steemit!

wow... I read your introduction and was totally reminded of myself. I am little bit older than you, but had similar experiences. I am a trained dancer and worked for many years as a dance and later choreographer and then had a car accident (spine damage) and a faulty treatment, so that I had to stop working. I already had a training as a yoga teacher and worked more and more as an instructor in the yoga education (for over 10 years now) But life changed again and now I have a different health problem and so I have again to change everything... right now I am unsure what will happen.
I so wish you the best! Its hard if dreams have to change, but it seems you are very capable to adept.

Oh dearest! You are very strong. The heartbreak of a dancer is something of its own. Even though it's only been two years at times I feel it's still really fresh. I used to feel so much anger, and honestly I still do, but life pushed me into an unexpected direction that turned out to be more rewarding than the one that I was heading.

I'm sorry to hear that you have a new health problem. Refuse to accept defeat. Our mind is so much powerful than we are aware of and keeping your heart full of courage and love will get you far. If you ever need anything, let me know. The body fascinates me beyond average and I now want to become a physiotherapist and a nutrition advisor. If there's anything I can do, don't hesitate to get in touch.
Love,
Tone💚

Thank you for your kind offer! I think with your background as a dancer and yogini you will be an amazing physotherapist. I think dancing helps very much to understand the body and how it moves. And you learn to observe movements which is also very helpful for a physiotherapist.

Very true! And after being injured I got a lot of "free" knowledge about how the body works. Got to experience the change in wrong dancing versus correct dancing first hand! Thank you very much, I'm really excited about it :)
