Remiss

February 26, 2009 Mollyavalon

I seem to be forgetting to post to either of my blogs lately.  I am practicing, regularly, but not daily, alas.  However, the rhythm of my mornings is going to change shortly, because I'm switching from a morning aqua exercise class to one at 5 pm, so I should be able to reestablish a morning… Continue reading Remiss

Great class

February 19, 2009February 19, 2009 Mollyavalon

It's always challenging when your teacher goes to a workshop. Mary Obendorfer was at the YCL last weekend. I could only go to the pranayama classes on Saturday and Sunday mornings. I think my teacher Kim went to everything. Today's class was spectacular and very hard. We loved it. Utkatasana (chair)!  Among other things.

No evaluation

February 3, 2009 Mollyavalon

Some time ago I had an exercise routine where I got up early every morning and spent 20 minutes on the stair machine. I realized that if you do something every single day at the same time, you don't evaluate it.  You just do it. The parallel is in brushing your teeth.  I brush my… Continue reading No evaluation

Yes, I’m still practicing

February 3, 2009 Mollyavalon

YoMo is over now.  It was great to get so many people signed up to practice at home for a whole month.  It doesn't even matter if people managed to do it every day.  Just thinking about daily practice is a wonderful start. I missed one day.  It was my day of traveling, and although… Continue reading Yes, I’m still practicing
