All the Important Life Lessons I Know, I've Learned From My Cat

I don't always pay attention to how I'm feeling. Some days I sit for hours in the same hunched attitude forgetting to move or stretch. Scout, however, is teaching me how to prioritize comfort. He stretches every time he gets up, spends minutes finding just the right position when he goes to bed, and generally does what feels good to him.

I know from my brief forays into yoga just how important this work can be. When we listen to our bodies, we have access to a whole knew world of information (even if we don't have tails).
