Lots of thoughts going on up in this head of mine these last 24 hours (mehhhh) and I was SO thankful to go to yoga tonight (I was 30 minutes early). I was ready to let it all go, sweat, breathe, and just melt into my mat tonight...didn't happen. I have a problem with overanalyzing and never being able to shut my brain off and it took a good 40 minutes into class to finally silence my thoughts and after that...all was cake.
I have found that I am focusing less on getting into the postures and more on how to tweak them to make them better. The instructors tell us to "find the cramp" and now that I've had a few days back in the saddle, I am reallyyyyyy trying to find the cramp (owwie). And I'm determined to get my head to touch the floor dammit! The little tips that Julia offered tonight were amazing. There were only 10 or 11 of us in class and I felt like she was talking to just me the whole class, knowing what I needed to adjust or to relax my face or hell, just breathe. It was a great class to end the week and number 5 is in the books.
7:30am class tomorrow morning...on a Saturday....haven't practiced in the morning in at least a year so it'll be interesting to see how I function sans coffee (I'm scared...the world should be scared too). Then a good time with my family to be had this weekend and class on Sunday at 4:30pm. That'll be the most time I've had in-between classes to recover so maybe I'll feel even more rejuvenated?
Chug chug chug Day 6 here I come!
