敬仰一下，分享一下：瑜伽

Ida Herbert, 96, holds Guinness World Record for oldest yoga teacher By Sarah Ratchford, The Canadian Press

給她口頭翻譯了之後,我們家姥姥要讓把報紙剪下來,譯了文夾起來,還是來這裡分享一下好:
Herbert attributes her good health and generally happy attitude largely to her years of practising yoga.

"It's made me very physically very flexible, and inside, it's made me look at circumstances in a peaceful way," she says. "Things won't make me quite so angry as they used to."

"That started me going on the physical part, and once I acquired the physical part, I learned what I could do inside." she says. "Keep my mind quiet, and my heart would slow down, my pulse would slow down, too, and there was a genuine quietness inside and peacefulness outside."

沒練瑜伽,老太太未必就能活那麼多年還柔軟自如。古老的東方文化對身心調節延年益壽還是有講究的:無論從意志力調節講究的寬容大度,還是宏觀反思的《不氣歌》,《寬心謠》,《莫惱歌》,再有瑜伽的身心meditation,都助人把煩惱置之度外,把是非曲直,古今多少事,都付笑談中,才能健康長壽。 祝大家周末愉快,身心快樂。
