I M Perfect lady

Woke up not as enthused today, but continued down the steps, hoping my attitude would change sometime during the next 90 minutes.

My night was broken up with kids going to bed at all hours, and for some reason I didn’t stay unconscious of the activities of the house, so I woke up feeling tired in body. 

I work today tossing mail, so I was determined to get a good nights rest, so I could bounce up to do yoga and off to work.

It seems the more I focused on resting the less rest I got! 

It wasn’t a bad yoga session, I just wasn’t fully into it, but instead just accepted the next position he put me in.

I lost track of what pose we were on and even if it was the first or second set.  Confusion doing yoga it seemed.

My balance was off on the one-leg postures, and I gave 100%, but didn’t push that extra 10% he wants.

I think if I would have tried the extra 10, I would have just sat and given up totally or cried.  It seemed like 100 was all I had to give.

It was a struggle just to be doing the yoga itself; I wasn’t capable of adding the extra push, for it was a push just to be doing yoga.  My usual interest to see where my body was, or how much has improved was nowhere to be found.

I was just a tired lady trying to maintain day five.

When it was all over, I felt great relief and actual success in having done it when my body was very reluctant and my spirit in acceptance mode.

The only part of me that wanted to do yoga was the inner desire to be healthy, and it seemed I fought the body and energy to do get through each pose.

Tug-O-War Yoga!
