January 22nd, 2013 This morning’s Bikram class was the first after three days. Things are very different with my body. Certain parts feel foreign and out of place. The only thing I can liken it to is when your first pregnant and your body just doesn’t feel familiar anymore. Instead of grabbing my heels in forward bend, I . . . → Read More: Searching For Gentleness
January 19th, 2013 Today’s quote in yesterday’s Cape Cod Times was:
“Life is a great big canvas and you should throw all the paint you can on it.” ~ Danny Kaye
I love this quote. Right away I picture a white canvas with all bright colors being spattered and swirled all over it. Life. Big, beautiful, exciting…..etc. Then . . . → Read More: Painting!
January 18th, 2013 I am at the Braintree T stop just outside of Boston waiting for my daughter's train. She just let me know she's going to be late, so I sit here thinking about how much better I feel today after a rough week.
Everyday this week has been hard. Extreme muscle fatigue and mental lethargy . . . → Read More: No Impetus
January 17th, 2013 Yes, tapping. What is tapping? Just what it says it is – tapping – like tapping your fingers on the table. So, why am I writing about something so ordinary? Because I've never heard of it before. I mean, I've heard about tapping your fingers on the table while nervous or bored, but I've never . . . → Read More: Tapping
January 16th, 2013 Yesterday I took a day off. My daughters would laugh and say, "A day off from what? You don't work." Since they are still in the time of their lives when a typical job takes up five days a week, a day off to them just means you don't go to your place of work. . . . → Read More: A Day Off
January 15th, 2013 This morning I read a post by Jennifer Boykin. (I follow her blog – she's really quite intuitive in a way I connect with) Her blog name, Life After Tampons, causes a few smiles, but it's the tag line that hits me where I need it to – "Quit your bitching – change your life." . . . → Read More: Random Sleeping Man
January 12th, 2013 Yes, "that space". You know it. It pops up everywhere. It's "that space" between being almost done and actually being done – that place where you want quit because you just know you can't do it. "That space" pops up in 90 minutes of yoga everyday. I hit rabbit and I'm positively sure I can't . . . → Read More: “That Space…”
January 11th, 2013 "When I look into your eyes, It's like watching the night sky, Or a beautiful sunrise, There's so much they hold…. And just like them old stars, I see that you've come so far, To be right where you are, How old is your soul?
Well I won't give up on us, Even if the . . . → Read More: It’s Like Watching The Night Sky..
January 10th, 2013 I have, over two years time doing Bikram yoga 3-4 times a week, become very comfortable with camel pose. Today was no exception. I went into the pose, without fear, because I have come to trust my teachers to not leave me there for more than 20 seconds. I came out of the pose and . . . → Read More: You Did It Right!
January 8th, 2013 This morning before I left for Bikram yoga I got an email from Koko Fit Club informing me that I was now moving to the next level and was eligible for an orange lanyard. You get points for every workout and for every 50,000 points you earn a new color lanyard for your flash drive. . . . → Read More: No Limits!
