Umsebenzi wokwenene wama-80s

Umxholo

• Uphengululo lwe

Njengoko ndivula imathi yam yeyoga kwaye ndiqokelela iinwele zam kumsila wehashe, iqela labafazi abathathu abanxibe iSpandex abakufutshane bayolula kwaye bayahleba. Owesine, enxibe i-leggings kunye ne-hoodie, idibanisa nabo. "Heyi, Lori!" utshiza omnye weqela. "Ngaba wenze nje amehlo akho?"

U-Lori ubetha imivimbo yakhe kunye nokunqwala ngentloko, kwaye abanye bancuma ngokuvumayo, njengoko isigulana samva nje sibonisa, "Ndonwabe kakhulu ukuba ndifumene utyando lolwenzo endaweni yokungcola nge-bifocals yam."

Iikhonsathi zangaphambi kokuzilolonga zixhomekeke ngakumbi kwii-colonoscopies kune UColin Firth xa ushushubeza iYoga eNobulali eLoyola Centre for Fitness eMaywood, eIll. Umyaleli uMary Louise Stefanic, oneminyaka engama-80, uqokelele imikhosi yamaqela kwiminyaka engama-42 yokufundisa, abaya kugxalathelana eklasini yakhe ukukhulula iikinki intamo, isinqe kunye nomqolo osezantsi ngelixa befumana ukuzola kwimini yabo. UStefanic waqala wazama i-yoga ngo-1966, ephendula kwintengiso ye-YMCA yendawo. (Emva phayaa, iseshoni yeeveki ezisibhozo yayixabisa i-16 yeedola; thelekisa ne- $ 32 kwiseshoni enye yoMjikelo womphefumlo namhlanje.) Ukuzilolonga komzimba kwakuvakala kungaphandle kwaphela, kodwa kwamnceda ukuba aphalaze iiponti ezingama-20 kwaye abuye abe noxolo noxolo- iimpawu ezilahlekileyo kakhulu ebomini bakhe njengomama okhathazekileyo wabantwana abathandathu.

Namhlanje, iklasi yakhe ephindwe kabini ngeveki- iyure yeyoga ethambileyo kunye nokuzolula - uhlala etsala abantu ababhinqileyo nabangamadoda abangama-30 ngexesha, abaneminyaka engama-60 nangaphezulu. UStefanic uyachaza: “Ndiyabazi abantu endifunda nabo. "Ndiyabazi uloyiko lwabo, ukukhubazeka kwabo, nkqu nemikhwa yabo. Iklasi yam imalunga nokuphumla nokwolula umzimba wakho, hayi malunga neentlungu. Ndifuna ukubanceda bamamele oko kufunwa ngumzimba wabo kwaye bafike khona."

Ndibonise iklasi kaStefanic ndinomdla wokubona ilitye le-octogenarian Crow Pose. Ngaloo ndlela, ndandiphoxekile. Iklasi ayizange ifune nantoni na ukuzama ngakumbi njengenja enye esezantsi; bekukho ukungqengqa ngomqolo nokolulwa kwemilenze. Andizange ndikwazi ukuzibamba kodwa ndixhalabile: "Ngaba le nto kufuneka ndikhangele phambili kuyo, ukusebenzisana nobulumko?"

Kodwa kungekudala ndasiqonda isipho sokuya kwiklasi enabafazi abangama-30 ubudala ngokwaneleyo ukuba bangangumakhulu wam: Ngokungafaniyo nezitudiyo ezininzi zeyoga, akukho ego apha. Abantu baphuma kwiCat-Cow. Amalungu aphuma kunye nokuncwina kunzulu. Kukho ngaphezu kwee-farts ezimbalwa. Abantu bahamba ngesantya sabo, kunokuba bazinyanzele ukuba bangene kwindawo ethile ngenxa yokuba umfazi osecaleni kwabo angayenza (ingxaki eyakhe yandibeka entlungu yentlungu emva kokuba ndizamile ukubamba indawo yokulima - nangona kunjalo ubuhlungu - kuba bonke abanye eklasini babenentloko phakathi kwemilenze yabo, nabo.)

Ndaba nethuba lokuhlala phantsi noStefanic emva kweklasi. Nantsi into eyathethwa ligqala leyoga:

Ngaba uyacamngca?

"Yonke imihla - nokuba ingumzuzu nje wokuphefumla nzulu ukuze uphalaze nantoni na endenza ndixhalabe. Kum, ukucamngca kufumanisa ukuba kusalatha kwihlabathi elijikayo. Ndinegumbi elijonge eMpuma, elithetha ukunyuka Ilanga, ukuqonda kwasekuqaleni. Ndizakuqala yonke imihla ubuncinci imizuzu emihlanu yokujija kamnandi ndize ndiphelise ukucamngca kwam, 'Ngale mini, injongo yam kukuba nothando ngakumbi, ukuxolela ngakumbi nokuba novelwano. "

Kunjani ukutya kwakho?

“Ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yama-70 omnye woonyana bethu wafunyaniswa ukuba une<em>hypoglycemia.

[Namhlanje,] sijonga umgubo omhlophe, irayisi, iswekile. Ndithenga i-half-gallon jugs yobusi obuluhlaza ukusuka kumthombo kwaye ndipheke ngebhotela kunye neoli yeoli. Sikhetha inyama etyiswe ngengca kunye nenkukhu - ziphelile iintsuku apho sasisibhozo ekhaya kwaye sahlula inkomo kunye nehagu kwifama ekufutshane - sathenga iziqhamo kunye nemifuno ephilayo, sizihlamba emanzini ngamathontsi ambalwa. ShakleeH2.

Yinto entle leyo! Nawuphi na ubuthathaka?

"Ubuthathaka bam yitshokholethi ..." ilungile ", oko kukuthi, ngaphandle kwePeutut Butter kunye neMallo Cups. Ndinayo iwayini nesidlo sasemini okanye isidlo sangokuhlwa amaxesha amane okanye ka-5 ngemvume ye-cardiologist yam kwaye ndiphepha iziselo ezinekhaboni. IPopcorn kunye nepitsa , nangona kunjalo, ifuna ibhiya."

Naziphi na iimfihlo zokuhlala umncinci ngaphakathi nangaphandle?

Uncumo. Ukuncuma kuphumza izihlunu ezili-17 kwisidlele ngasinye, kuphumza intamo yakho kwaye kunciphisa ukuxinezeleka kwemihlathi. Kunciphisa ukubonakala kwemibimbi.Ukuziva ulungile ii-endorphins ziyangena, kwaye ibeka abo bakungqongileyo ngokukhululeka.

Ungqongwe ngabantu. Nika ukwanga. Fumana into ekuzisela uxolo - ndicula kwikwayara, kodwa ungazibandakanya neqela lokufunda okanye uthathe iklasi yobugcisa. Kwaye phuma phandle. Phonsa uvule amakhethini akho kwaye umeme indalo ekhayeni lakho. Vumela ilanga likufudumeze kwaye likuphilise."

Andinakuze ndiphinde ndizifumanele iklasi yokomelela apho ndingumphefumlo ndedwa okhulelweyo ngelixa wonke umntu sele edlulile kakuhle exesheni. Kodwa ndihlala ndiwakhumbula amazwi endiwave ehleba enye ye-yogi enesilivere ngaphambi kokuba aqale: "Uyayazi into entle malunga noMary Louise? Ububungqina bokuba ukuba siyayinaka kwaye siyabambelela kuyo, imizimba yethu iyakuhlala nathi."

Amanye amanenekazi "amadala" asikhuthaza ukuba siqhubeke nokubila:
