I scheduled an arm balance workshop for tonight after work last month. It’s something I really want to lock down in my yoga practice.
It was humbling and challenging at the same time. I’ve missed challenging myself physically. It’s been nice starting that back up again.
I’m 6 months post op, give or take, and I feel as well as I suppose I will. I’ve been lax on heavier strength training and more advanced yoga. I’m ready to pivot that. It’s something I’ve missed.
I teach a class weekly, yoga that is, and I whooped their arses this week. Didn’t realize I had done so? So I definitely have a foundation of strength. The arm balances though, are on another level - at least for me. So, I’m saying it here, it’s my next goal.
Not sure I mentioned it previously, my co-chair at the non-profit studio, asked me to teach a class at a retreat she hosted (again yoga, matter fact, it’s all yoga - whole post) several weekends back.
Teaching is still something that I have to decide before each class I can do. It has pushed me out of my comfort zone. I teach at a cozy studio, and my class sizes range from 2-8 most times. The retreat was over 20 or so people. By and large the largest class I’ve taught.
It went really well. I awake dreamed the whole sequence that I taught, and I practiced it prior to get a music plan.
You know I quote beastie boys and wear my Peg Bundy leggings friends. You already know.
It’s been a good week.
Headed this weekend to pick up the windows my brother sat aside for me for this idea C and I have for a greenhouse. That’ll be fun. The back porch is patched from the ice storms in January, and the material is ordered, just this area is COVERED UP with repairs at the moment. It’ll prob be a bit longer.
Still sorting the upstairs.
Converted the raised garden boxes in the front to flower beds. The deer ate everything last year. EVERYTHING. So I’m going to put a row or two of some stuff in the back and just bloom it loud and proud out front this season.
Example is this tulip bed. I’ll add more because I want each bed bursting with color an blossoms and each bed is a different flower.
Anywho, that’s some of the haps. Be well, live well xx
