I've realized that blogging every day is tough to do. I feel inclined to check in, let you know I am still going strong, but I also find that some days I just don't have much to say about the challenge. I haven't missed any days since I started again. But, I also think I overestimated the amount of thinking I would actually do in class. I really only think about my breathing or going deeper in the pose, everything else takes a backseat for the duration of the class.
I just finished class and I feel really great. Each class seems to be going faster than the last, I don't know if that is my body getting used to the time, or the fact that I am able to be more patient and present in each pose.
People are starting to notice changes. In both my physical and emotional appearance. This is good because I am not seeing them. I still feel as though I am in the breaking down stage. I learn a little more about me every day. This challenge has had the exact effect I aimed for
I want to start getting into the relationship aspect this challenge. I think you will enjoy reading about the chaos that is my love life, but... Na I will save that for when it feels right.
Ms. Mallory, I have a question. Do you feel better when you eat before yoga, go to yoga on an empty stomach, or somewhere inbetween.
ReplyDeleteSince I only do bikram, I can only speak to that, but definitely don't eat less than 2 hours before a class. I try to do it on a empty stomach. That being said, I have gone to a class where I hadn't eaten enough during the day and I felt really dizzy the whole time. The heat does very unpredictable things. I will say, if you are doing hot yoga of any kind, always drink twice as much water as you think you need.
