Room in the Kidneys, Wonder in the Heart. Vinysasa Basics: 11.4.10

Ravi Ravindra's teaching suggest a counterpose to fear is wonder. I've practiced for a while with finding the counterpose to fear to be faith, and that seems to work for me. Yet, as I dive into deeply held fears I notice there is a line from fear through wonder into faith. Exposing the feeling of wonder helps me loosen the grip. A considerable amount. Thank you Ravi! Thank you Kira, Thank you Shiffman blogger!
