Yesterday I really pondered about whether to go to yoga or not. I was busy the day before and have commitments today that prevent me from going, so that would mean three days without yoga. However, I was feeling defeated after a long week and a particularly tough day and just wanted to curl up under the covers away from the world.
I told my husband about being conflicted and he said "[if you go to yoga] maybe it will wake you up and make you feel better." His support encouraged me and I went. I had a great class. Some feelings bubbled up during practice and I was almost tearful at times but I worked through them. Afterward, I did feel better and more energized. If I had just gone home and to bed early, I might have continued to feel defeated and overwhelmed.
Transformation Through Yoga
This is an informal journal of my experiences with Bikram yoga. Through my practice I have become a better version of myself. Not only has my health improved in marked and measurable ways, I have also become much more deeply happy, connected with the present and have moved further down the path of enlightenment toward kindness and compassion for all beings.
I hope eventually to become engaged in dialog with others practicing Bikram yoga with their own intentions and experiences. Please share your comments. I will receive them without judgment or attachment, and with an open heart.
Namaste
