no news

Continuing on from yesterday, I started my practice with a dedication to my aunt and repeated my 'focus' mantra. It worked for most of the practice.  I've been looking over yoga mala again, so I was focused on the correct vinyassas today, not taking any extra breaths. It was all good until laghu vajrasana.  Then I had to take a couple of extra breaths, and again before kapotasana.  But I was able to grab my heels today which was good.  However I was keeping my hips lifted whilst in the pose, so as not to crunch my lower back, and I wasn't able to get my elbows to the floor. But that's ok. My upper back is still all tight from when I tweaked it.  The LBH poses were the usual, no news there.  I kicked up into pincha without touching the wall, and held it for just a couple of breaths, but I am starting to get a feel for the pose, and can see it's arrival in my not too distant future.  I did my drop backs but they just didn't feel as comfortable as yesterdays. My sacrum was buzzing in a nervy way.  But at least the thumping head rush I used to get after doing them has stopped appearing.  

And thats that.  Tomorrow is a moon day, which I'm grateful for, as I'm back on my full schedule of classes this week. It's tiring, but all will change in a months time.  I love teaching, but at the moment I'm doing 15 a week, with a lot of travel, and combine that with a strong practice, I sometimes feel very drained.  But hey, whose life is perfect? And on the whole I love my life.  I do think it funny when I stand back and look at my life, how different it is from 10 years ago.  It just goes to show, there's no point in stressing about the future, because life unfolds in ways you can't imagine. Faith.
