Resistance

Today as I started my practice my mind was ready and calm. I started working and wouldn't you know it I had some resistance on one side of my body.Once I felt this resistance I checked my thoughts and to no surprise I had thoughts running through my mind that I couldn't let go. These thoughts are things that I am truly resisting. I took a deep breath and really just let it go and watched as my body opened up a little more. I just love spending the time to do something so nice for myself and to take the time to breath and let go. It is wonderful!!! If you are looking to let your mind let go check this out.

Flexible

It is funny how when I talk to people about yoga they say "I would love to do that but I am not flexible". I always say "You don't have to be flexible, yoga helps with that". Those words have rattled around in my brain a lot lately. So as I practice and gain flexibility in my body I have been excited to also see that I have gained flexibility in my daily life. Things that were complicated or hard to do have become easier as I increase my practice. If you feel that life isn't very flexible you just might want to check out a yoga class!
