Thursday Yoga- Non-Inspirational Titles This Week

Thursday, February 28, 2019
Woke at my normal 4:30AM.  I'm starting to actually wake naturally a few minutes before the alarm goes off.  Don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing. lol

Physically, I'm feeling good.  A little ashamed of the gluttony that I've allowed into my life for the past few weeks, but not too ashamed.  Life is good.  I'm feeling strong and energized as I type this, so I feel as though this morning's practice will also be physically strong and energized.

Time to meditate and pray and see what comes.

Thursday, February 28, 2019 (Part II)
I'm writing this on my mat having just come out of my shower.

M practice was marvelous this morning and it was, indeed, strong as I'd anticipated.

Having been a complete, no-holds-bar, glutton for the past couple of weeks, there's extra weight and heaviness around my mid-section (story of my life).  It's easy enough to get rid of with clean eating and yoga/running, so I'm not beating myself up about that.  Again, physically, my arms, legs, and other muscle areas are strong.

Mentally, I'm focusing on not wearing myself out unecessarily today.  I'm going to let everything, good and bad, flow through me, and not catch little things that gnaw away at oneself.

Feeling marvelous and ready to go out into the world.

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.
