Road to Bodhi

Hi, my name is Kim-Lan. Welcome to my journey notes. In order to gain a more healthy lifestyle and develop wisdom and compassion, it is good to challenge yourself every once in a while. Starting 28 July 2014, I challenge myself for 30 days. My challenge: Return to the mat (do yoga) every day. This is where I document my ponderings, struggles and achievements, my road to Bodhi.

I can't believe how quickly time has gone by. The 30 days are officially over and I completed my challenge! On to the next. Namasté.

Finally some sunshine today! Good day for sun salutations. Let the freedom flow!

What a busy busy day. First workday at a new department. Bedtime yoga is all I can manage now, but that's okay. Shed the weight!

Even after a busy day yesterday (my 25th birthday!) I managed to return to the mat at 11:30 pm to do some nice and easy bedtime yoga. My birthday present to myself.

Even on my birthday I managed to return to the mat!

Day 16 is here. I'm halfway there y'all! Returned to the mat every day up until now. Feels good!

After a nice bike ride, doing yoga feels like a good cooling down exercise.

After having done some active flow yoga yesterday, I did restorative yin yoga today to balance it out. Time for a nice cup of tea. :)

Almost time for my weekly yin yang yoga lesson at the yoga studio. I'm actually starting to get used to this.

Sunday is sun salutation-day! Enjoying this absolutely beautiful morning to the max with some morning yoga.

Did some nice stress relieving yoga. Sweet surrender. Letting go what no longer serves me. I love yoga!

I can't believe I managed to return to the mat tonight, even after already have fallen asleep in my bed. First big obstacle overcome.

Yoga is doing what feels good. And me love the movies. Hope I can still find the power to hop on the mat afterwards...
