“Dear Cardthartic,” Teri wrote us back in 2022, “I really want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for inviting me and all the Cardies to join Cardie Yoga when you began offering it in March of 2020.”
We practice via Zoom every MWF 2-3 p.m. ET, and Teri is nearly always there with her cheery hello before instructor Paola welcomes us to the mat. “I’m not always able to join the class,” Teri says, “but I am always so happy when I can.
“Not only did it help me get through the awful isolation that COVID wrought,” she believes, “it also helped me recover from breast cancer surgery last year and has certainly brought more peace and balance into my life. In addition, when I went for a massage and stretch session last week, the massage therapist mentioned that he thought I was incredibly flexible. I assumed he meant flexible for the 71-year-old woman that I am but, no, he insisted that I was flexible for a 31-year-old woman!! Imagine that!! I really can’t thank you and Paola enough.”
To usher in 2023, Teri offered, “Something I came across and thought you might appreciate. It’s from ‘A New Year’s Thoughts, and Old Ones Gathered’ by Neil Gaiman:
May your coming year be filled with magic and dreams
and good madness. I hope you read some fine books
and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful,
and don’t forget to make some art – write or draw
or build or sing or live as only you can.
And I hope, somewhere in the next year,
you surprise yourself.
“Wishing you a very happy and healthy new year,” gracious Teri wrote. “One that’s filled with everything that brings you joy, and at least a few wonderful surprises!”
