Today I did only three things. I went to Koko fit club in the morning, washed windows all afternoon, and went to 6 pm yoga. It was a good day in the sandbox. First of all I cannot tell you how much I love the Koko Fit Club. To work out in such a quiet, beautiful place and on top of that, not even have to think about it, is just fabulous. If you have never worked out before this is the place for you. It will not be hard. It will not be intimidating. It will actually be relaxing and fun. I love watching that little pace bar on the computer as I lift my weights. My mind and body are both busy and engaged. I feel great and have a ton of energy when I leave there. My overall energy level increased ten fold over the past three weeks.
I spent the afternoon happily washing windows, enjoying the gorgeous day. Then came yoga. Uh oh. I was having those expectations again, remembering Friday’s class. It was hot in the room. I laid down, became still, and avoided a panic attack. Class started. I was moving like a light footed ballerina through the standing series. I even kicked out and held it the whole time in the first set of standing head to knee. Incredible. My Koko body craved standing bow and I held all four sets the whole time. My back just sunk into that pose and felt so good. The floor series proceeded without incident. My Koko back just loved the spine series. This was actually one of those once in awhile, dream classes where everything was perfect and just clicked.
I’m so glad Bikram and Koko played nice together today. My mind, body, and spirit feel amazing tonight, but I’m smart enough to not get too carried away by my ballerina experience. Just like I knew Friday was those two steps backward, I recognize today as being the one step forward. I know there will be more backward days where Bikram gets mad at Koko. I have to remember this, like the rest of life, this is a process, not a competition. I just hope they become best friends eventually.
And so, as another day goes by, time to root for my guy Bryan Keith on The Voice, and….I have written.
I kinda did look like this tonight…in my mind anyway! Lol!
