Image: Author's own. Photographer: Rhonda Dorsett Tree pose is the very first yoga pose I can remember trying. The memory from this first attempt is a blur of wobbliness. I see myself teetering in the pose and within a few seconds falling out of it.
"Belonging to a family of trees" is such a lovely concept and one I need to keep in mind. I haven't practiced any yoga for quite a while, but your essays focused on yoga poses always remind of the benefit and all that I am missing out on. I need to get back into it. Thank you for the inspiration my friend.

As a fellow tree, with shared roots, many thanks for the inspiring reflections on tree pose!
I’m going welcome supermarket lines, and also be more proactive about reinforcing my balance as I begin my eighth decade.
I also LOVE trees, and I love the way that you’ve painted a picture of how to make that love a visible, physical part of daily life.
With gratitude
