Today I felt great–as if I were building up from yesterday’s experience. I was pretty fluid and fast, without the heaviness and broken movements that I’ve been feeling in the past few days of practice. My balance was much better, and I could feel that I’m have strengthened enough to go much lower in Chaturanga (before I couldn’t bend my arms enough). I also made a point out of trying to lift myself with my cross legs and try to push back; I’m sure I looked a little funny (specially since every time I did a major landing on my butt) but who cares, that’s the only way to learn. And the irony is, doing it and failing felt like progress. I must add that my shoulder stand it’s also getting pretty good
Today was a good day to practice–things have been hectic and stressful at work, so I need it. I’m glad that I’m feeling good enough to practice on Friday and Saturday–Saturday night I’m traveling to Peru for work once more, and since the flight is overnight, I can already guess that I will be mostly tempted to rest on Sunday. I hope I will be able to practice for the 10-days or so I’m away (and with days full of meetings…); I must, since I”m feeling so good right now, I wouldn’t want to lose the momentum I seem to be gaining. Somehow I need to find some time to practice…

I just linked through alfia’s blog. Am reading many yoga blogs theses days. Alas my yoga practice is suffering lately because of my new adventure. So I am getting my “yoga fix” by revisiting old “yoga friends” blogs
