One more step on the path

Up at 5.30 this morning and did yoga. Practice wasn't much, just Sury A, but I still enjoyed it. Even though I had not practiced in a while I was still able to get my heels on the ground. I have been told that muscles have a memory and if you can achieve something with your body a few times that the body will remember how to do it. Finished with a modified finishing and a some meditation (chanting Om). I find it a nice way to finish and a good way to get set for the rest of the day.

You have to start somewhere

Well I have finally gotten off my backside and create the blog I have been meaning to create for some time now. Nothing like ticking off those jobs on life's list that you never seem to get around to.

Tonight I've been playing with Tweetdeck. I have been trying to find an easy way to manage Twitter and FB at work and this looks like it might do the job. Rather than being browser based like Flock it is its own programe. Might load it up at work and try it out there.

Started yoga again this morning after some time away due to study. This must be like the 257th time I have started yoga again. All I really want is to have a consistent Ashtanga practice. The question is what price am I willing to pay. That would be one of my points if I ever had a manifesto 'Everything comes at a cost - whether you get it or not depends on whether you are willing to pay' I suppose I should come to practice with an attitude of non-attachment. If I am meant to start again i will. It is a matter of learning those lessons that come from this.

been busy

I have been busy over the last week trying to get uni assignments in. I always seem to be rushing to get them in on time. I have vowed for the next 2 due that I will plan them a bit better so I am not working so hard to get them to make sense. Planning essays was one of the first things I had studied but I seem to have let that lesson slide a bit. 

As a consequence of my time/space problems, yoga has slipped a bit over the week. I missed yesterday morning as I had been up late the last 2 nights previous getting my assignment done. I am still working on Sury A. With a bit more time on my hands this week its time to introduce Sury B.

Master T popped in this morning as I was practising and asked if he could do some yoga with me. Good to see that he is interested in joining in. Trying to explain Sury A to someone who has no idea what to do was interesting. Lets just say that the asanas were somewhat different to what you might find in a book.  This reinforced to me how difficult being a yoga teacher must be. Demonstration is a must when trying to explain what you mean.
