| Hi everyone!
Long time no see. I've been kinda out of it these past few months. As some of you may remember I had some problem with my foot and it's been bothering me all winter and I've been forced to rest as much as possible. Now I finally have permission to start practicing again and it's SO good to be back on the mat again, even though it feels like I have to start from scratch again.
I hope you all are well, I've missed you, but I haven't been able to even visit the forum because I've missed practicing (asanas) so much. But now I'm back in the game!
Namaste.

| Of course we missed you. You have been so Isola-ted. Now is the time to take it peacefully, and use your foot only in possible amount and prepare your routine that way. I mean NOT get into a predetermined routine of any style where foot is used in Their Own Way, rather than Isola's own Isolated Way!
best luck |

| Hi Neel! Good to see you!
I am very careful with how I use BOTH my feet. It's only the right one that's been bothering me, but I give the left one the same treatment so that it doesn't get "over used". It feels so good to have a doctor that takes my problems seriously, she has already ruled out several possible diagnoses and on Monday I will get an x-ray to rule out stress fracture. I also have an appointment to get some shoes fitted out that supports my feet the right way.
And the best part of all; this doctor, unlike the first one I went to, doesn't blame this on my yoga practice. She wants me to get started again so that the rest of the body gets what it needs, as long as the foot doesn't get worse. It didn't get better by resting, and it doesn't get worse by practicing, and she said that I seemed to have good enough body awareness to know how much I can use the foot. More doctors should be like her! |

| Tacka dig mycket Jenny. Hey--har du stillbilden den stora televisionen? |
|
| |
|
| I think you have to translate that last part... |
|
| |
|
| It was supposed to be "Do you still have that big television?" |
|
| |
|
| Yes, my 32"-beauty is still with me. |

| Well I see you waited to return so we couldn't come over and watch the SuperBowl on that baby--oh, you probably didn't want us spilling beer on your white sofa. |

| Me and my foot planned this well, you see.  |

| Welcome back! Glad to hear you are able to practice again, though sad that the foot still hurts. BTW, you can come here and play with us, even if you aren't practicing. |

| Hi tourist!
Honestly, I've been reading a little bit during these months, but I've missed practicing so much that it was almost torture to read at the forum!
Sounds crazy, eh?
