Tuesday Yoga

Tuesday September 15, 2026,

Starting one's day with prayer and reflection is really the prime benefit of being on one's yoga mat.  The physical/asasa aspect of the practice is secondary.

Namaste

The Rebuild

Tuesday, July 10, 2018 Woke at my usual 4:45AM this morning for coffee and contemplation.

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's 5:27AM as I type this, and it...
