This is simple. I'm Tish Oxen Rider.

Hey friends, in this episode I'm chatting with my friend Catherine Willis Percy who's been on the show before and is a long time contributing writer for the art of simple.

Her full-time job is pastor of a local church in her town so So in this chat, we talk about what she wrote about this week

on the blog.

She recently also became a certified yoga instructor.

So Catherine talks to me about what that was like, the misconception she had about yoga

before she began a few years ago and generally what it's like to find fun surprises you didn't

know you needed in unexpected places.

And then I expand on my post from the week as well, where I shared my good list, which

I haven't done in a while.

I talk about why I love creating playlists, a new-to-me veggie delivery service that's hitting all the right buttons and the beauty of making time for hobbies even when you have no time

So let's get right to it here's Catherine and me talking about yoga hobbies journal, journaling, and just making time in our lives for the small

delights.

Okay, Catherine, I am really intrigued by your whole recent journey into yoga, being also a pastor.

Tell me a little bit more about how that even happened.

Yeah, it wasn't on purpose. I actually, I just started practicing yoga five years ago and

didn't expect to really

bought it for the heat more than the yoga

because it was like negative 14 that winter

and I thought that that, you know, 95 degree room sounded delightful.

And then if I had to do yoga to be in that room, then, you know, so be it.

And then I loved it.
