Tag: 30 Day Challenge

I’m taking the day off from IDRI in order to get Scarlett the Prius’ recall notice thingey out of the way.  She was recalled awhile ago now but I have procrastinated getting her fixed.  Maybe I subconsciously enjoy the thrill of driving a car that might spontaneously accelerate?  Or maybe being carless for 90 minutes…

Last night I took a delightfully fun Yang Yoga class with Rayne and the gang.  The high point of my class was doing dragonfly, a new variation on the basic pose.  I wish I had a photo to share of the variation but here is standard dragonfly.   I will most definitely try and get…

Back from Rayne’s awesome noon Power class.  Damn!  I love holidays 🙂 I am teaching later tonight, so I am just enjoying some quiet time with the Basenjis until then.  Romeo is appearing from hiding under the sofa.  He was quite ill this weekend, it is beyond nice to see him perking up.  He is…

Good morning!  I only attended one class yesterday so I’m still behind two classes in The Challenge.  I wish I could take on two classes today but I don’t think my right knee would appreciate it, it has been tweaky.  So the plan is to take Gary’s class at 3 p.m. , then teach Yin…

Groggy.  Morning here too early today!  But I’m sipping some coffee now, with intention to switch over to water as I am going to Claudia’s 6:15 a.m. before our weekly lab meeting at 9. It is imperative that I get on my mat before this day begins.  I am two days behind on the challenge…

Monday, Monday….  I am going to start my day out properly with Davin’s 6:15 a.m. Power class.  I don’t feel as creaky as yesterday (post Sat double) so that is a good sign that I’m getting stronger.  I have done 8 days of yoga classes successively before; I think the most I’ve ever managed is…

Well, I did a double today – Yang this morning and Power at 5 p.m. so I’m back on track for the 30 Day Challenge.  It was a great day at The Ashram and at home with Romeo and Zena.  I’m a little concerned that my throat feels a little raw; a bad head cold…

I cannot wait for Gary’s 5 p.m. power class. It’s why I got out of bed this am.  Here I am outside of IDRI, needing yoga so bad I’m willing to do headstands on concrete.  I’ve always refrained from trying headstand on concrete, figuring it would hurt something horrible, but actually it doesn’t hurt at…

Lunchtime and I’m wishing that I could be at the noon Power class so bad.  No matter, I am excited to teach Yin later tonight. I am incredibly grateful to lead class :).  Starting to get nervous about teaching Yang tomorrow night.  But I know that we’ll have a fantastic time. This was taken after…

starting a 30 day, 30 yoga classes challenge at The Ashram. Also a 30 day TM meditation challenge.  This will not be an easy undertaking but I know that it will change me for the far better.  Today is the day – take on the challenge with me 🙂 I’m going to comment each day…
