#IDF / Tuning out a #genocide to practice some #yoga in Beit Hanoun (بيت حانون)

Ynet host asking [not sarcastically, as far as I can tell]: How does this moment of quiet feel, with the cannons rumbling around?

[…] Surrealistic completely. It's to sit inside a house in #Gaza, explosions around, noise and chaos and the radio in the background. But precisely inside this, the consciousness knows this is what it needs now and it tunes in, and this is the ability to practice yoga and meditation. It doesn't matter where you are, it's being attentive to yourself."

[…] I also come from the worlds of #Judaism and #yoga, and it is told about King David that he had exactly these two poles, that he knew both when to be in war and be a fighter and do what's needed in war as well as to be very, very gentle and sensitive and write Psalms and write poetry.

[…] I draw from this connection and from his character, within the context we are in, and also when I'll need to return to war, with God's help I will also do so.
