Today I went to my ninth bikram yoga class. When I go to my tenth, I will have spent $3 per class. I am really making the most of that introductory offer.
I think I am making progress, but with yoga, it really does take a long time to work up to an “advanced” level. For example, the pose where you twist your arms around one another, then your legs
For some reason I am unable to make my arms do that in that tight, crossed way. Are my arms too short? Are my tits too big? (ha ha, no.) I am hoping it just happens eventually, rather than it just being a structural fault of mine, being a petite girl.
I did a lot of packing last night, packed up all my clothes. I listed my dressers and nightstand on craigslist, and so far I have over ten interested people. Man I love craigslist. Because I am honorable, I am saving it for the first person who replied, who claimed they would be here tonight by 6:30. If they flake or if they pass, I will still have everything sold by tomorrow.
Today: hot shower, roomba the apartment again, pack a couple more boxes, clean under and around the kitchen table, watch a netflix movie (I suspended my account, did you know you can do that?), and go to dinner at Stephen’s. Another full day that will likely fly by.
Your shoulders are probably too tight. Unless you ever pulled a shoulderblade or have some sort of injury, you will be able to do it eventually.
Practice and time have a lot to do with it, but I think that some poses are easier or harder for men or women or individuals based on their unique body structure. I have seen this in both yoga and kung fu. For example, eagle (what you posted above) is ultra-easy for me, arms and all, with no practice or effort. Other things that may come super easily to you are probably really rough for me….
Yeah that is true. For whatever reason, I can balance on one foot with the other foot in my hand behind me all day long. I am good at the balancing stuff. Maybe because of my lower center of gravity? Or from taking martial arts and ballet?
There was this yogi in class yesterday with 10 years experience. He could do some sickening stuff. But grossest of all was the way he sweated all over MY TOWEL (it was a very crowded class). But even worse than that, hottie surfer boy was not in attendance. I miss my eye candy.
I am not one to squee over the Doctors here at the hospital, but I have the CUTEST new surgery resident right now.
My balance is getting worse and worse and it was never good to begin with.
Youz gonna eats goooooooood toonayght
