yoga saved my life Can't Post
Hello there,

I am Oona, from Holland and 35 years old.
I started doing Iyengar yoga when I
was about 8, because my mother is a yoga-teacher. Two years ago I had a very serious car accident.No doctor can understand or explain how it is possible that I am still allive and walking AND doing yoga, because I
broke (among other things) my spine....
I know yoga saved my life, and is still helping me to recover!
Is there anybody out there with a simmilar experience?

Best wishes,
Oona Giesen

That is so wonderful. I wish the whole world could know of your exerience and also recieve the gifts of yoga. Although I have not suffered from a life threatening injury, that I know of anyway, I believe yoga saves my life everyday! How fortunate you are to have started so young!
