Yoga: Practice #64 (9/28/12) comparative analysis?
I just spent the past 45 minutes with Tiffany completing her Fresh Hips! class on Yogaglo.com. Damn are my hips as tight as ever! I had a bit of a internal scuffle regarding how inflexible I felt and how inadequate I must have looked compared to Tiffany. Yoga is not a comparative analysis, I know. I also know that Tiffany has been practicing for a much longer time than I. I additionally know that I have not dedicated myself to my practice as much as I feel I should have been the past few months. I used to practice 6 days a week, now I'm down to 3-4 and for me, that is just not enough. My sage friend, Holly, told me that I need to spend 20 minutes a day practicing. Even if that means in balasana (child's pose), I must do it. I know this and that the benefits are tremendous...I just can't understand how people work all day, barely have time to eat, work out and then have enough time to spend with family. I commend all of you working-fitness addicts who take care of yourselves and your families-you are truly amazing.
I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out what I need. Kundalini? Yin? Restorative? Jivamukti? Ashtanga? Vinyasa? I'll pinpoint it this week since I plan on devoting myself and my time to some upkeep (mani/pedi), cleaning my house, doing laundry and most importantly....YOGA!!!
