When Dad turned 55, he morphed into a walking refrigerator. Strong healthy. Upper body a solid cement square. Trapped inside musculature. No flexibility.
We all turn into our parents, mine with perhaps a genetic disposition towards midget back and spine muscles? (Little people back and spine muscles?)
Today was a 6 am silent class. Someone entered the studio late during Half Moon Pose with Hands to Feet Pose. (Arda-Chandrasana with Pada-Hastasana,) An Arctic blast hit the back as fingers grabbed ankles. Not the exact moment one wants foot traffic behind them.
Got to play ball with a favorite dog for the last time Sunday.
We will maim her and lame her on Tuesday to take out cancer tumors.
Bend over. Grab your ankles. Kiss your ass good bye.
Yoga pose of the day hint: Janushirasana Paschimotthanasana. Paschimottana Flex the soles of your feet back so they are parallel to the front. This will gently stretch the hamstrings and flatten your legs onto the floor.
