Mmmmm....Today, I love yoga.
You have to understand, I have this love-hate relationship with yoga. I've taken multiple yoga classes and half the time I really enjoyed them. The other half I'm sitting there in some incredibly unnatural position that my body just doesn't do normally, thinking "This is absolute bull. Yoga's crap." Bikhram yoga, laughing yoga, p90x yoga....love them. Meditation, mantras, chants, savasana.....I could take them or leave them.
Today, it's a love yoga kind of day. My body needed it as a break from the harsh beating my poor plantar-fascia tendon in my feet take due to so much running (and non-supportive shoes...beauty is pain). And ya know what? I love that today, yoga made me feel cleansed. My digestive system thanked me (this means that farting and queefing may have been involved. Yes I just admitted it. Embrace it. They're natural bodily functions.) and my body was both worked out effectively, gently, and stretched so well.
Tomorrow......who knows? It might be a different story.
(P.S. Tree and Frog pose rocks my socks. They're my favorite. Try them out!)
Ah, yoga. Temple offered tons of free classes to students, and Saturday morning yoga was my FAVORITE. It's on the long list of things that I miss from Philadelphia, but alas. Perhaps I'll have to work on my discipline and do it on my own, ha.
ReplyDeleteHahaha! Do it :) If you find a yoga place at home, let me know! That would be fun to go together sometime.
