When Hunter started learning yoga she says her whole world just dropped out. She was angry, wondering why she was there and she had a complete meltdown. It was, she says, a positive thing because from there she was able to surrender and rebuild.
At an ashram this year Hunter undertook 19 days of silence. She said it was hard as her mind was so busy, but through meditation and walking in nature, her mind calmed.
No sooner out of silence, she went into a series of Covid lockdowns in India, again alone, comparing her lockdowns to going into constant cycles of silence.
She says we can find solutions in lockdowns where we can find the expansion and space we need in the mind.
