Ayisiyiyo kuphela into yokuba utyebile kwaye wenze i-yoga, kunokwenzeka ukuba uyiqonde kwaye uyifundise.

Kwiindidi ezahlukeneyo zeyoga endikhe ndaya kuzo, ndihlala ndingoyena mzimba mkhulu. Ayilindelwanga.

Nangona iyoga yinkqubo yamandulo yaseIndiya, iye yabiwa kakhulu kwihlabathi laseNtshona njengempilo yempilo. Uninzi lwemifanekiso yeyoga kwiintengiso nakumajelo osasazo angabafazi abhityileyo, abamhlophe abakwizixhobo zeembaleki ezibizayo.

Ukuba awungeni kwezi mpawu, kunokuba ngumlo wengqondo ukuba ubhalise kwindawo yokuqala. Ukuqala kwam ukungena kwisitudiyo seyoga, ndabuza ukuba ndizokwazi na ukuyenza kwaphela.

Ayenzelwanga abantu abafana nam, ndacinga.

Okwangoku, ikhona into endixelele ukuba ndiyenze kunjalo. Kutheni ndingafanele ndibenalo ithuba lokufumana izibonelelo zomzimba nezengqondo zeyoga, njengaye wonke umntu?

Ngaphandle kumatshini

Ndaya kwiklasi yam yokuqala kwiminyaka embalwa edlulileyo kwisitudiyo esikufuphi. Ndikhe ndaya kwiindawo ezahlukeneyo ukusukela ngoko, kodwa ibiyindlela engqindilili.

Ngamaxesha athile, kunokuba neentloni ukuba ibe nguwe wedwa umntu omkhulu egumbini. Wonke umntu unengxaki yokuma okuthile ngoku, kodwa amava ahlawuliswa kakhulu xa wonke umntu ecinga ukuba uyasokola kuba utyebile.

Emva kweklasi ngolunye usuku, ndiye ndancokola nomyaleli malunga nomzimba wam ongafikeleli kakhulu kwiindawo ezithile. Ngelizwi elipholileyo nelithambileyo, wathi, "Kulungile, mhlawumbi ngumnxeba wokuvuka."

Wayengazi nto ngempilo yam, imikhwa, okanye ubomi. Wayecinga ukuba ndimzimba wam nje kuphela ukuba ndifuna “umnxeba wokuvuka.”

I-yoga fatphobia ayisoloko icacisa njengaleyo.

Ngamanye amaxesha abantu abakhulu njengam bayanyanzelwa kwaye baphekwe kancinci kunaye wonke umntu, okanye bakhuthazwe ukuba banyanzele imizimba yethu ekumeni okungaziva kulungile. Ngamanye amaxesha asihoywa kwaphela, ngokungathi singabantu abalahlekileyo.

Ezinye zezixhobo, ezinjengeebhendi ezinokuhlengahlengiswa, zazincinci kakhulu kum, nkqu nakwezona ziphezulu. Ngamanye amaxesha bekufuneka ndenze into eyahlukileyo ngokupheleleyo, okanye ndixelelwe ukuba ndingene kwiPose yaBantwana ndilinde wonke umntu.

Amagqabantshintshi endandikhe ndawenza "wokuvusa umnxeba" endenze ukuba ndicinge ukuba umzimba wam yingxaki. Ukuba ndilahlile ubunzima, ndacinga, ndiza kuba nakho ukwenza imeko ngcono.

Nangona bendizimisele ngokwenza, ukuya kwiklasi yeyoga kwandenza ndanexhala kwaye andamkelekanga njengoko ixesha lihamba.

Oku kuchasene noko i-yoga kufuneka ikwenze uzive. Isizathu sokuba mna nabanye abaninzi ekugqibeleni ndiyeke.
