Day 27 - More Focused and Unhurried Practice Today

[hikejmt]

I had a nice practice first thing this morning. It was lovely to be able to focus and feel unhurried. I did the ashtanga series that has been working for me - 5 As&Bs, standing sequence, the primary series to boat pose then most of the finishing sequence. It was a fairly focused practice for me despite my girls' shenanigans. Let's see - they were running around my mat, pushing their lets against me, and - my personal favorite - rolling their stuffed guinea pigs down my back (with sound effects) when I went into downward dog.

I forgot about photos till the end and went back to get a photo in side plank. I noticed that I was taught the pose the way my feet look, but the pose on the yoga journal website shows feet stacked. Oh - I just went to find the link and see that in the full pose, the top leg is all the way up in the air! I'll have to see if I can work toward the full pose.

If you can focus on yoga during all that ruckus, you're doing great!!!

Stuffed guinea pigs attack! How do you survive? I think a lion's roar would emerge out of my downward dog, if something like that happened to me.
