Today is my Birthday!
I got asked a question a lot today at work. "Are you going out tonight?" The answer is no. I went and did the 6:30 yoga class at the JCC. I am very committed to this journey.
I haven't done any form of yoga in years. I do the occasional pose or two with the kids in class, and I've done a couple of teacher training yoga workshops, but nothing grown up since I was in college. I thought that I could use the stretch after the weights yesterday. I do, however have a pretty cool yoga mat and an even cooler bag that I made in which to carry it.
The class itself was wonderful, but I realized how badly I was out of practice. My balance is terrible! I'm pretty flexible, but not as much as I needed to be for this particular class. I was pretty unstable. I'm sure if I practice, I'll get better.
The thing about yoga is that instead of feeling energized, I felt relaxed after the class. Considering the fact that I still had to drive forty minutes to get home and then cook dinner, I"m not sure if that's a good thing. Maybe long term it will be. I do need to relax more. Maybe high and low energy days? I don't know, but I'm open to suggestions. Post comments please.
I don't know what tomorrow's workout will be, something high energy I'm sure.
