In 2016, Ms Lainey Morse developed a new type of yoga class in Oregon. People practise in the presence of small goats. The animals like to accompany them, they let themselves be stroked and jump on the practitioners during the training. The mere contact with the goats allows for deeper relaxation, the touch is calming and their antics energise you and put you in a good mood. These animals are very sociable and curious, they willingly participate in joint activities. This shows how much good we can do for each other, living in symbiosis, without cages, without suffering.
In everyday life we have forgotten to communicate with nature, with animals, the contact can be the best remedy against stress, loneliness and depression.
The photo is inspired by the story of 40 goats who took part in goat yoga for the first time in Poland in 2018. The exercises with goats were incredibly successful and are a permanent fixture in the calendar of one of the animal shelters, the pioneer of goat yoga in Poland.
