Yoga for dating
Dating. Oh, how it’s changed. In my day, there was no social media and little texting. You had to get someone’s number, speak on the phone, make a plan and stick to it. You’d look up movie times in the newspaper, which you had to go to the shop to buy with your money. You couldn’t book online, so you’d arrive at the cinema early enough to get tickets.
There was something about the accountability of it all. People did what they said they were going to do, and actually showed up. To not turn up and leave someone standing outside a cinema or restaurant was a rare and serious thing, unlike the regular online “ghosting” of the modern dating world.
Life was slower, there were way fewer distractions; people sat at dinner, listened to one another, looked at each other’s faces (instead of their phones) and read each other’s subtle cues. In other words, they actually got to know one another. They generally said what they meant and meant what they said, and you worked out fairly quickly who was right or wrong for you.
How times have changed. Dating has become so tricky. So how can the practice of yoga bring more joy to the process?
