Yoga 365

Day 3: I’m sick, tummy is jacked up and I can’t make it far from my bed or bathroom. I think I ate some uncooked chicken last night or perhaps it was too much butter on my bucket of popcorn. Anyhow I’m here and it is what it is. I’m home sick from work.

I got Judith Lasater’s book out that most of my fellow #yogadorks are reading to see what she had to say about today’s #Yoga365. Judith says that we should have expectations about things that are going on. Negative or positive we can not tell what other people are thinking about the same situation.

Adho Mukha Svanasana- Downward Dog

Today downward dog is my friend. I have been there for a few minutes today already and enjoy hanging out there. It helps me to turn things upside down a little even when I’m not feeling well. Yoga helps me in almost every situation in my life.

365 Yoga: Day 1

So im starting 2011 by trying to commit to doing Yoga for weather it be reading, meditation, asana or perhaps even writing(which Im trying to do more of). Im going to try to talk about it often but not to much to wear no one wants to read it.

Im going to be reading A Year of Living Your Yoga by Judith Lasater along with several of my friends on twitter.

Today Im reading and watching movies cozy up on the couch with 2 snoring dogs and J. Drinking tea. I need a chill day..

I love tea

Friends with ‘Me’

OK so I have been reading and its really been getting to me. I have noticed that somehow the right book seems to find me when I need it the most. The Namaste Book club has been great for me for this reason.

I’m reading books that i may have never heard of or never would have picked up to begin with.

I have been having a hard time mediating lately. I have been find things about myself that I either A)didn’t like B)didn’t want to deal with or C) just sucked in general to deal with.

This book has made me realize that I’m not a “bad person” no matter what has happened. That I can love myself and its OK to not be the “best person” all the time.

My past isn’t to fantastic but I’m trying really hard to be the best person that I can be now and in the future. I want to like me for me, not the person that I want to be or that someone else wants me to be. But the person that I AM right now, right here.

Through my yoga practice I have become more aware of these issues and have really started to want to make a change in all things that I do. Love, life, teaching, working, whatever it might be. I want to be a better me doing it.

The things that I hate to do the most are the things that I am making a moving meditation on the Daily.

So I guess I’m working on the now and the me part. I need a book to help me with the us part now too.. lol

Namaste
