Mister Bizzy Skedge

Wednesday, January 13, 2021 (Part I),

There's a preoccupation with being busy.  "Oh my goodness....I'm just so bizzy.......you just wouldn't believe how bizzy I am......the bizziness of my life is unreal.....let's take 2+ hours to talk about how bizzy we both are so we can do comparisons to each other's bizziness, to see who is truly the King/Queen of a bizzy schedule...."

Having too much to do is a "crown" that people wear for some reason.  When we're moving at this pace, it becomes more and more difficult to give love and accept love.  Love, in this term, comes in the unromantic forms of kindness, gentleness, and understanding.  

A yoga practice will help provide clarity in your life as to what is worth dedicating your time to, and what can be culled out of your life to refine the areas that you want, and should, give focus to; primarily, your family, and yourself.

Monday, February 13 2017 Groggily woke at 5:00am this morning.  I've had coffee and I'm on my mat but may not do a physical practice this morning. Monday, February 13 2017 (Part II) Did prayer/meditation on my mat and went through my standard warm-up routine.  That's all I have in me.  I'm going to move through my day slowly and with care and come home to crash in my bed. Namaste

Re-Building + Persistence

Tuesday, January 23, 2018 Re-building a routine is hard. I woke at my usual 5:00AM this morning and did not want to get out of my bed. I'm on my mat as I write this, however, and will be beginning my practice shortly.  I've found that, like most habit changes, the 3rd day "hump" is usually the most difficult; get past that, and you're golden. Tuesday, January 23, 2018 (Part II) I'm writing this on my mat, having just come out of Savasana. As always when we push ourselves through something we don't want to do, it feels good when it's done and over with.  I'm feeling wonderful, connected, and ready to address the challenges the day might throw at me. Namaste

Asana

Monday, March 30, 2020 After no physical practice/Asanas on Friday, and no yoga over the weekend, I notice that it's difficult to stay motivated and dedicated to my practice at times.  Additionally, I ran a solo-10K this weekend (the St. Louis GO! Marathon/Half-Marthon/10K was cancelled, like most public events), and the additional tenderness in my feet, legs, etc. definitely told me not to get on my mat. Monday blues/malaise, essentially.....a "negative mind"... When I'm on my mat, feeling like it's pointless, and that the day ahead is pointless, and that the efforts I'll expend to make things better are pointless, I can go back to the foundations of my life.  First, what do I live for?  I live for God.  That is my attempted mantra every day. It is not for me/you to understand the purpose of anything.  Pulling yourself out of an equation is very liberating in that you're no longer attached to the result. It's 5:27AM as I type this, and it...
