Yoga al Aire Libre
In an article published on February 21, 2021, by El Norte, I, Rashid Azarang, founder of the "Yoga Chipinque" community, discuss a special outdoor yoga session led by Cecy Alcaraz. This session, part of our thrice-weekly meetings, was notably attended by Camila Antillón, who had just completed chemotherapy.
The article details the physical and emotional benefits of yoga, as described by Alcaraz, an experienced yogi with over eight years of practice. She emphasizes how yoga integrates physical postures with emotional and internal work. Postures represent more than physical movements; they symbolize internal resilience, balance, flexibility, and strength. This holistic approach helps practitioners find mental strength and confront personal fears and prejudices.
The benefits of yoga extend beyond the physical, offering a complete and noble exercise suitable for all ages. Emotionally, it fosters a deep connection with one's inner self, allowing practitioners to discover their true feelings and identity.
Alcaraz expresses her satisfaction and joy in working with the "Yoga Chipinque" community. She reflects on her journey as a yoga teacher, emphasizing the importance of practicing yoga for its intrinsic value and the happiness it brings. She concludes by encouraging the growth of yoga practice and the idea that fewer needs lead to greater happiness.
