Is there any way that you can squeeze something positive into your life, into your dialy schedue?
Every day, one little thing or activity that makes you smile and makes you feel alive, well balanced and make you feel like you take care of yourself.
Think of how your life would change if you could do something like that every day for a long time?
Can you make space for yourself every day?
For me this is yoga. It means all those things for me. It's pretty surprising that my day unfolds differently when I start it with practice. It's calmer, more balanced and it's easier for me to keep peaceful mind through the day, no matter what happens.
Yesterday, I had to be at work early that's why I couldn't go to Mysore class. I really felt different through the day, I was becoming restless and nervous.
I went to the evening led class and by the time I was getting to the studio I felt almost sick.
Not to mention it was really hard for me to get up at 6:25 am to go to work, not to yoga. Because if I get up for yoga, it's much easier.
I even started to read some yoga books, I just finished "Guruji" and started off with Kino Macgregor's "Sacred Fire". I've been wanting this book for awhile now, and was unaware that actually the studio I go to sells it on the front desk. I am on third chapter now - it's very inspiring and interesting to read about somebody else's experiences. Actually, many things make sense to me and some remind me of myself. I am too, like she said she was, overenthusiastic beginner who yet does not know much, but wants to share everything ;) Its funny that everybody started somewhere! I recommend this book to anybody keenly interested in Asthtanga yoga.
Enough for today!
Enjoy your practice,
Joanna
