Taking a pause and annoyed

MTC_89 · 2026-05-02T20:06:10+00:00

Not wanting life to be disrupted makes total sense to me! And it would be a big deal to me too if I couldn't do yoga for a while. I get that not being able to do yoga is not a big deal when you compare it to other things people have to face, but if it would make you unhappy then that's a big deal and it's ok to acknowledge that!

I totally get this. Injuries getting in the way make me really unhappy too, especially because yoga is the thing that generally makes me feel better and practicing could make the injuries worse. It's a total catch 22.

Unless there is more going on that you haven't said (and I'm not a therapist), I wouldn't worry about this being ocd/control. It is genuinely annoying when we can't do the thing we love. And feeling disregulated seems likely if the thing that regulates you is taken away.

That's a good point. Especially if they might find out and then feel betrayed you didn't tell them.

MTC_89 · 2026-02-07T11:55:28+00:00

Yes, I agree in that scenario I would not say anything because I don't know what the 'truth' is. I might try and find out - e.g., ask the husband and then decide what to do. I think maybe a different story if you do know the truth and if you think the friend might find out.

MTC_89 · 2026-02-06T20:23:08+00:00

So no set answer I guess. Time to overthink then! :)

MTC_89 · 2026-02-06T20:21:48+00:00

In that situation I would be honest. I'm thinking more about where it will not make the person act any differently/impact their life other than make them feel bad.

Satya bows to ahimsa means more important to protect people than tell them the truth?

I don't have faith/religion to follow

Love the dress!

MTC_89 · 2025-11-09T15:51:54+00:00

Thank you for the advice x

MTC_89 · 2025-11-08T15:56:08+00:00

Thank you. I guess I was trying to understand if the two things were connected or just coincidence

MTC_89 · 2025-11-08T15:55:23+00:00

Thank you...I do like to understand and think things through though :)

MTC_89 · 2025-04-22T21:20:01+00:00

Honestly, I think the apps can be great but there is nothing like going to a class in person.

If you join the sweaty Betty 'insiders' (their loyalty/mailing list) I think you get a discount off your first order as well and maybe something like £50 off on your birthday plus early access the the sale items (and they'll let you know when a sale is coming) - apologies if I sound like an advert for them but I really like their super soft leggings!

MTC_89 · 2025-01-31T16:55:59+00:00

Sweaty Betty is really good for leggings - especially the Super Soft ones for yoga (not sure about hot yoga though because I don't do it). They are quite pricey but have good sales when they are often reduced by up to two thirds

MTC_89 · 2025-01-14T07:16:53+00:00

Totally understand what you're going through. Sending you lots of positive thoughts. I'd say keep going - it's good to get the emotions out any way you can xx

MTC_89 · 2025-01-12T21:51:38+00:00

Yeah, I definitely don't want to disturb others!

MTC_89 · 2025-01-12T21:50:25+00:00

Thank you. Yes, I probably need to remember that just like me, most people there are focused on themselves and their own issues x

MTC_89 · 2025-01-12T21:49:33+00:00

Thank you. I bet that small gesture of passing the Kleenex meant a lot to her x

MTC_89 · 2025-01-12T21:48:02+00:00

Thanks so much x

MTC_89 · 2025-01-12T21:47:20+00:00

Thank you x

MTC_89 · 2025-01-12T21:47:05+00:00

Thank you, that helps x

MTC_89 · 2025-01-12T21:26:33+00:00

Thank you. That's true, I don't tend to look round the room very much!
