瑜珈 Ｘ 青香球：自我照顧的新妙招
青香球首次登場沙龍照
為什麼用青香球擺攤？
Why set up stalls?
當時看到海誓文化市集在招募攤位時，很喜歡主辦單位設攤的主旨：希望讓外國的朋友分享他們國家的文化。也因此我也想分享臺灣的青草文化給外國朋友。
When I saw that the HIGH SEAS CULTURAL Market was recruiting stalls, I really liked the organizer's purpose of setting up stalls : they hope to let foreign friends share their country's culture.Therefore, I also wanted to share Taiwan's green grass culture with foreign friends.
主辦單位是台中山盟商行，他是來自波蘭的寶玲創立的無包裝商店。打從心底地佩服這位外國人的勇氣與行動，畢竟我未曾在國外開店過，如果有機會的話，真的會張羅旗鼓邀請大家來玩！
The organizer is Summon Refillery in Taichung, a packaging-free store founded by 寶玲 from Poland. I admire her courage and action from the bottom of my heart.
After all, I have never opened a store abroad. If I have the opportunity, I will really invite everyone to come and play!
瑜珈和青香球的什麼關聯？
What’s the connection between yoga and green fragrant ball?
瑜珈與青香球都是照顧身體的一種工具與方式，他們可以獨立使用，也可以搭配使用。
Yoga and balls are both tools and methods for taking care of the body. They can be used independently or in combination.
從身體面來說，青香球可以用輕敲輕壓的方式，讓我們知道此時的身體肌筋膜與皮膚的感覺，像是柔軟與緊繃等等。當然我們在瑜珈動作的練習過程中，也可以感受到這些。
From the physical aspect, green fragrant ball can be used to gently tap and press, allowing us to know the feeling of the body's myofascia and skin at that time, such as softness and tightness, etc.
Of course, we can also feel these during the practice of yoga movements.
從觸摸青草、聞到青草的味道，讓我們在不同的植物香氣裡，搭配出屬於自己獨一無二的香氛。
也就是在當下用屬於自己的氣味來照顧自己。
From touching the grass and smelling it, we can combine different plant aromas to create our own unique fragrance.
That is to take care of yourself in the present moment with your own scent.
而我練習的瑜珈也是如此。在練習中，覺察自己的動作，找到當時合適自己的移動方式，在每一個體位中進出。
也就是在當下用屬於自己的體位來照顧自己。
And the same goes for yoga practice. During practice, be aware of your movements, find the way to move that suits you at the time, and move in and out of each position.
