Reach, Stretch, Breath 1 month ago

It’s been awhile but it’s a great way to learn commitment. Commit to my yoga.

all boxes checked 3 months ago

this has been effortless since i started teaching again- i’m teaching my own classes on mondays and fridays and twice on wednesdays, and attending classes on tuesdays and thursdays, leaving only two days where i have to motivate myself to practice, saturday and sunday, which is when i prepare and practice the class for the week ahead.

4 days out of 7 4 months ago

i m feeling like i just dont have the time for it every day. but it all comes down to getting up earlier, the goal that is proving to be the most difficult of the lot.

first class in two months 4 months ago

i like going to classes because:

i’m motivated to hold the poses for longer.

i’m the youngest person there, which makes me feel fit and sleek and limber… (none of which i really think i am the rest of the time)... and yeah, i know yoga is meant to be non competitive but my ego sometimes cant help itself

i spend time resting in savasana afterwards, which i always cut short when i’m on my own. i relax so deeply that i regularly fall asleep.

i correct myself better, extend into the poses more, make more effort all round.

i think i need to amend this goal 4 months ago

to “do yoga daily on all days except the ones in which i have thoroughly and legitimately exhausted myself”

today was one of those days

weak and wobbly 4 months ago

yesterday in my salutes to the sun i managed to hover in the spaces between chatarangadandasana, the cobra and downward dog. today i was on my belly on the floor in those spaces, arms quivering, weak and wobbly.

on this, the second day,my body seems to have cottoned on to the fact that the 2 month interval in my routine has left it little incapacitated.

so couldnt get out of bed this morning, but it was lovely doing it this evening, because juno, my daughter joined me. she wants to get up early with me tomorrow and practice again. maybe that’ll get me out of bed.

Solitary practice vs classes 7 months ago

Classes somehow give me the discipline to have a schedule about my practice, like I have a responsibility to the class or at least the money I am paying for the class. But I’ve recently gotten myself a new job of teaching high school and my schedule is atrocious. I worry that adding a class on the weekends or afterschool might sap my energy or precious unwind/lie-in-bed-comatose time. But workouts are supposed to give you more energy, no? I’d like to develop a solitary practice anyway though, do the poses I want to do, emphasize the muscles I want to go through, listen to my own breath and counting instead of someone else’s. What do you guys think? Class or solitary practice?
