Wow, I am sorry that you have hernias! I know those can be painful and take a really long time to heal. I too have that issue and have been working on healing it as well! Thankfully I can still do my hot yoga practice but I do need to modify or sit out on some poses. I know it can be hard to go without yoga. I'm glad I could inspire you to take on a new form of meditation! I look forward to reading your entry!
Blessings and a warm healing hug to you my friend!!
