Yoga

I've been going to yoga now for about 3 months. I started going before both Peter and Lee went to the state hotel and resort. I am so grateful for yoga and for the peace I've gotten through practicing it. I'm not a yogi by any means, but every time I come to my mat, I feel better. If there's one thing I've learned is that for the 75 minutes I am practicing, I can keep my mind and body contained within the small rectangle that is my mat. Out in the real world, I find myself using that technique...and often lately. All I've had to do is call to mind what I think in yoga, which is stay right here on your mat. All that I am responsible for is what is within that rectangle. I'm bummed because my punch card is up and I'm broke until I get paid on Friday, so I won't be able to go until next weekend after I get paid. Classes are $15 if they're paid for singly and it's just not affordable for me. I may see about getting a yoga video.

I love the view that all you need to worry about is what is contained within that rectangle that makes up your mat. That is a truth that we all need to start taking with us everywhere. Very profound.
