Jonathan Brookins gets back on the horse and talks about the process. 
That's the work.  It's falling down 7 times, but standing up 8!  2020 dealt humanity a lot of harsh realities, but as Jonathan quotes in this episode, "It's not about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep on moving!".  This is the first episode back on the road to 200!

Jonathan sits down to talk shop with NYC photographer, and Yogi, Monty Stilson.  Monty has been integral in creating a community for people to practice yoga outdoors, at pier 46 in Manhattan.  In a time when many were scared to be outside, Monty showed that sometimes the way through that fear can actually be approached from the inside. 

Jonathan finally gets back to his seat after a month long hiatus he felt he needed to take.  In order to step back and observe what was happening in the world from the vantage point of Manhattan, New York City, before making this episode.
