June 6, 2014
Started the day with chair yoga. It was a perfect beginning. I took it slow and modified some poses a bit for a more aggressive workout. On others I backed off. I am listening to my body and being thoughtful about how things feel. What I love about taking basic classes is they point out the little details of a pose that we have often forgot or take for granted. In Warrior 1 we were made aware of the need to have our butt cheeks tight. When I checked I noticed that naturally occurred on the left side but not on my right side. It made me aware that I am not using the muscles in my leg and buttocks correctly. This reminded me that my "software is still getting use to my hardware".
After yoga I went to the park to meditate and then back to the studio for a restorative massage. What a perfect day!
By the end of the day I was tired and ready to ice my hip. Tomorrow I plan to take it easy with meditation and some simple stretching.
Stay tuned!
Namaste
Donna
