Day 42

I've been keeping a pretty good balance of doing yoga at home and going to the studio. I have been doing research on the internet and from books and magazines that I have to develop some routines that I can do at home. It's been really interesting, I'd have to say that it has given me some new insights on my practice....and appreciation for all the knowledge that the instructors have at the studio.
I've been losing track of what day I'm on because it's become more of a lifestyle for keeping up a daily practice rather then a challenge. But when I take the time to think about the fact that I have done 42 days of yoga so far it really amazes me. It keeps getting better and better.
I think an important factor for me is to keep things flowing naturally, keeping a balance that makes sense for me. so far so good...

Day 36...I think :S

I just completed a 1 hour at home practice, I went through the Moksha series this time. The timing worked out pretty good, after putting Brynjar down for his afternoon snooze I hit the mat. I was able to make it all the way to pigeon before he woke up, so I just sat him beside me while I finished the series. He seemed pretty confused as to what I was doing. But none the less I completed Day 36! yay

This week I did mostly at home practices, which has been really great but I do look forward to getting down to the studio tomorrow.

I think a lot has changed in my practice and life since I started this challenge. I find I am not only accomplishing more in my daily life, I am taking on greater challenges. It should be interesting to see how I feel in another 44 days :)

Day 32

I just finished another at home practice tonight. I followed a serious that was in one of the Yoga Journal mags that I have, I added in a few postures that I felt like doing. I'd have to say that I really enjoyed it, I had some "yoga music" going...dim lighting... it was nice. I've been trying to stay motivated with this new found energy that I've been going off of lately. Tonight I was feeling a little blah but I think I pulled myself out of that... So now I guess it's going to get harder to count because January is over and I will have to use more brain power to remember which day I'm on :S (wow, what a profound thought) ....anywho..Day 32 was great... tomorrow I might try to get down to the studio..
