and again i was super late on Wed & Thurs.
i realised why i've been so tired & exhausted the last 2-3 days. it's a monthly thing. my body starts to breakdown a day or two before my cycle starts. and because my body is still getting used to doing yoga for the last two weeks, i got extra tired. i just couldn't get out of bed this morning, despite already being half awake.
my body is telling me not to push it any further. i've not done any form of real exercise in months (maybe even years), and i'm no spring chicken either.
i used to lie to myself that, yeah, i am exercising what.. i'm dancing in clubs.. counts rite :p
no, dancing in a club does not count for exercise. its not as intense as dancing in a real class for 2-3 hours straight. it can't even compare to my 1 hour of yoga every morning. so therefore, it definitely doesn't count.
no worries, i'll be back and bouncing again in another 2 days..
---------------------------------

Dear Li Ann,
ReplyDeletewhen you are at the bottom of your energy...do yoga! when you don;t feel like it!
sometimes, i have practitioners who will say "can we do gentle class today?" then I will do the opposite! and surprisingly, they get so much energy after that and feel great!
this is what is going on...
our mind doesn't work with our body. If you have intension in your mind, such as "I will sit like this for a good 10 minutes", then your body start to fight against that...funny but it does happen! all times...
so work towards breath...to make this two work together...that is what intension, breath and action got to work together...
Then when I went to Paddy last saturday, she mentioned the same experience!
Its our the play by our mind, body normally will fight or resist coz its discomfort which normally we will push away...so we are still working towads that...
hope you enjoy the food...Food I prepare with love and intention for all of you!
oh ya i need to get your order for next week for my shopping list!
have a lovely day! see you in the morning!
