Today is my Ashtanga day. I go to the 6pm led class. All I really want to do right now is rent a bunch of movies I've already seen. Have take out for dinner and lie on the couch.
Why? Because I feel wasted. I feel beaten down. I feel curling up into a ball and pretending the rest of the world doesn't exist.
But I know that I need this. My mind needs my yoga practice today. My mind needs to shut the hell up and think of nothing except my breath and my body. I also need to do something I'm good at. And I know that the ego needs to exit my practice but I feel that I'm good at yoga, whatever that really means. It feels natural to me. I feel as though I fit in the world when I practice yoga.
So in a couple of hours I will drag my tired lazy ass to my practice. I will surround myself with people who have a wealth of knowledge that I want to learn. And I will take my time to do what I love to do. Because I right now, all I want to do is give the world the finger.
