Day 2 - Morning

Aching thighs and shoulders... This is what I woke up with, as a definite evidence of the work we did yesterday. But that motivated me even more to rush in, practice and burn these aches into strength.

We started right away this morning, for about 2hrs of Sadhana. Though we started with some structured namaskar (jala and surfee namaskar), we ended up going in a total Sahaja flow (no structure, totally spontaneous), where Shiva led us through amazing water-inspired moves, and then let us finish in a free flow of spontaneously arising postures. It's funny how structure is so ingrained in all of us though. Halfway through, Kishan, an assistant, asked me to continue deeper, and surrender more to the Flow and let go of the form. Which I did, and I had an amazing moment moving through beautiful shapes in a wave like motion, back and forth, no always finishing in the full form of the asana, but definitely embodying something.

This great moment finished with a beautiful meditation, and a quick escape of the room to let the next class come in. I had the most delicious smoothie after class. We got this Juice It Up store that allows us buy smoothies at a 20% discount, and they get prepared just ahead of time, so they are nice and cold and ready by the time we finish class. Awesome.

I was going to go to the Spa after class, but figured I ought to do some laundry first. I will go to the spa this afternoon right after class, before the evening session in Santa Monica.

Let the flow be with us. Imperfect Husband, I love you. Moomoo and Keke I adore you. The rest of the world, I worship you.
