A Slow Start


Eight days into 2010,  five classes under my belt.
 A slow good start.  Recession is making forstronger families
Everyone is now is at home playing with the kids.
 I am tired.  Bikram Yoga tip of the day: stretch your palms and feet always. The rest may catch up if you have the time.

Legs fail me

Yoga Train rides again



Yoga monday 6:00 am.
Great to be back in an early morning class.
Not too crowded. Happy to be back with the home team.
Studio had a five year annivesary while I was away.

Newly named classmate: hurry up girl.
She does not lower her hands to her side,
instead rests her hands on her hips.
I expect toe tapping to follow.
Mind instantly reads the body
language as "hurry up".
reminder to focus on my own form.


My mind instantly goes off somewhere
at the slightest prompt.
That is why I am here.


Bikram Yoga tip of the day: Standing forehead to knee pose. The most important thing is to lock your rear leg. To get a firm grip under the balls of you feet  you must to bow your standing leg backwards.
