Living Practice was created for anyone who has an interest in yoga or any creative activity that helps them pay attention to the world and live a meaningful life.


Me

Welcome! My name is Jessie Carson. I am a mother, reader, writer, wonderer and walker. These are the things that enable me to feel like I'm living a creative life.

I like old things, which is probably why I love yoga and its philosophy, and stories that get passed on and on and on. My hope is that through Living Practice, I can develop a richer understanding of my place in the world. Here, I write to question, consider and slow down and for those who yearn to do the same.

A friend once gave me a postcard with a quote on the front by Franz Kafka - “A non-writing writer is a monster courting insanity.” Writing has been one of those acts that settles me, even if what I write is for no one but myself.
