Class 235
(Wednesday 9am - Y Thuan)I entered the class with a bit of trepidation. I had gotten crushed yesterday afternoon and somehow sensed that I was near my limit physically.

I retreat to my comfort spot by the Jason Winn pic. Class went without any major problems. I would even say it went well.

After class Y Thuan and I chatted a bit about the tough classes we had the previous day. She asked if I was going to do a double and said that she was going to take a day off because her body needed it. I was thinking my body needed a day off but I was committed to taking Jeff’s 4:30.

After class I made a green smoothie and took a nap on the couch. When I woke I felt a slight tingling numbness in my arms. It was the same numbness I felt in class yesterday when I got rocked. I got up, made another smoothie and began hydrating for the 4:30 class. The numbness wouldn’t go away. It wasn’t anything dangerous, but it was troubling, like a sign.

I sat there and pondered whether I should go to class or not. Actually, that is not true. I knew I should not go to class, I pondered going to class anyway. I tried meditating for a bit and then came to grips to the fact that I would not be doing the 4:30. I went to the library and borrowed a few books, even though I am reading something like 4 books already. I came home, read one of them cover to cover and then had a realization. The realization has been coming for a long while now, but somehow I needed to be here and now in order to… fully realize it.

I realized that I should stop blogging everyday about my yoga.
