124/251: Subtle.

Had my first class last night after I think 2.5 weeks off.  No major events.  Clean practice and good for my spine which loved a good back and forward bend.  No improvement on my achilles but it didn't kill me and I was able to stay standing and adjust depth for my current state of affairs.  Standing on one foot is so hard right now.  Patience.

I'm feeling these days like the benefits for me are not there though I know they are.  Everything is much more subtle at this stage of the game.  The healing is deeper and not as surface.  The yoga is working on other aspects of life which are more apparent.  How I miss those days of high after a first class back or better yet 3 in a row.  Ok - well ciao for now.  Busy at work these days so not as much time to write.  Going to the 5:30 class after work.  Looking forward to a chill Friday afer work class.

Under construction...

I'm on a hiatus from vacation and begin vacation part two later tonight.  I haven't had a hot yoga class in over a week and just on Wednesday had a tinge of maybe I'd like to take one.  I miss activity and exercise all together!  We went to a yoga dance class Tuesday night that was just a blast.  Worked up quite a bit of sweat too.  Anyway, I'm back out tonight for apple-picking, swimming and more R&R.  I am re-evaluating how important rest is and how important it is to avoid repetition for me.   Life is chaos - it's best to get on with it, get used to it and be at peace within that chaos.  I rely on too many things outside of me for happiness. Enough for now, I'm working on things broken in me... I guess you could say I have a huge under-construction sign posted on my fore-head.
