Friday, June 30, 2017
Woke at my usual tie of 5:00am and am feeling very good.

I've lacked a bit of motivation and direction and drive this past week.  To be fair on myself, I have been doing nothing but sitting in a training room absorbing huge amounts of high level information.  I'm excited to begin putting those training principles into practice in real life.

Mentally, I had a scary and upsetting dream last night.  It's not too uncommon for me to have a dream where something bad is going wrong that I have to resolve, so I'm not going to put too much emphasis onto that dream.  Other than that, I'm feeling rested, refreshed, and ready to hit my mat and, subsequently, go out into the world.

Physically, I'm feeling well.  Slight stiffness in my lower back but, other than that, I'm feeling normal.  I've broken through the "I'm-gonna-sleep-in-for-5-more-minutes" trend that I had the past two weeks and my internal alarm really does go off at 5:00am again (just in time for the weekend to smash it to smithereens!)

Friday, June 30, 2017 (Part II)
Just came out of Savasana and can't wait to go out into the world.  Had a wonderful and deep physical practice this morning with chanting on in the background, open windows, and tons of sweat.

I'm going to try and stay connected to God today; I'm going to try and remember that everything I'm doing, I'm doing with that divine spirit, that lives in everything, and what does that divine spirit want me to do.

Trippy and sugary, I know, but it's how I feel this morning.

Namaste

Good Enough

Thursday, December 19, 2024 Feelings and emotions (in general) are things that I advise anyone to be aware of, but to never let them control you (a feeling isn't real and an emotion isn't real either, despite what Pixar and Inside Out, etc. all have to say to us about emotions).   The emotion/feeling of being "good enough" can work for us and against us (some days we feel more than good enough and some days we don't); whether "good enough" is working for us or against us, it should still be observed, but never focused on much.  I woke up not feeling "very good" and or "good enough" and or blah blah blah...... I am happy that I'm on my mat, and beginning my practice as I know I will feel better afterwards.  Time to begin... Part II: As always, I write the initial post before my practice, and I write the Part II immediately after I've concluded my practice.   My perspective and outlook has changed so much from a few hours ago.  ...

Monday Yoga

Monday, July 24, 2023, After an enjoyable and yoga-less week and weekend, I'm back on my mat. We'll see what today's practice brings.  It's 5:20am, and it's time to begin... Part II: As always, the first update is before I practice, and Part II is written immediately after my practice is complete; usually about ~2 hours later.  I was stiff.  I was sore.  I was unfocused.  I was bloated. No matter how "uninspired" a practice can be, it always refines you into a better version of yourself.  For that, I'm grateful.  Time to enter the world.  Namaste

Tuesday Yoga

Tuesday, April 30, 2019 Last day of April 2019. I woke at my usual 4:30AM this morning and had my hour of coffee and contemplation. Physically, I'm feeling good.  Slightly sore and stiff, but feeling overall well. Mentally, I'm feeling fairly well controlled, but I can sense my brain flitting from one thought to the next.  I'm going to focus on controlling my thoughts this morning, and add an extra "omph" to my physical practice to help sweat out any over-active tendencies. Spiritually, I'm feeling well.  I'm secure, solid, and whole.  Time to sweat it out.
