Okay, whoever you are that just hit play.

I just hit record.

Here we are.

This is Jay Brown Yoka Talks podcast. My name is Jay Brown. How's it going? What are you doing right now? Are you driving in your car? Are you taking a walk? Are you at your kitchen table having breakfast? Maybe you're just like doing some vacuuming and I'm on in the background. You're barely

even paying attention. Whatever it is, I really appreciate you being here and I hope that you're

got a local center you go to, or maybe it's an online thing that you've been going to for a long time,

people are looking for, and it seems like there's

certain types of community you can have online, and then there's certain aspects of community

maybe you can have online. I don't know, I guess I've just been thinking a lot about it.

I think about how I had the yoga center for 10 years, and in that time,

friendships were formed, and all kinds of connections were made.
