We can experience life and this world only through our physical body, and a lifestyle disease can restrict what we can achieve.
Modern medicine can only teach us how to manage it but is it worth living with it if there is a possibility of curing it?
A sore shoulder and tight neck muscles may take the joy out of life. Imagine what if this shoulder pain does not go away!
There is a pearl of great wisdom in the above quote as we know that not all pain can be cured, some can only be endured.
However, there is greater wisdom in understanding the difference. It requires becoming sensitive to the functioning of our body, learning to listen to its cues and acting with compassion and patience to the subtle improvements.
Yoga can help us cope in times of trouble. It can settle the mind, keep the body moving and reduce discomfort. It helps us to endure when a cure does not appear to be an option.
