Yoga Practice

I feel as though I made a major breakthrough in my yoga practice today -- maybe doing zazen yesterday when I was feeling too sore from class on Friday for my usual practice really did help. I also think that Friday's 90 minute class was a far more whole practice for me than any that I've had so far. Doing yoga today, my mind cleared almost immediately, and in all my movements a sort of intuition took over, and I was able to move further and more gracefully into every posture. I felt the energy more than ever before -- even my lunges felt natural!

More than anything, this is heartening. These are things I didn't know my body could do. That my body could surpass my mind's preconceived notioins of capability rekindles a hope for possibility, a more limitless possiblity, not just in yoga, but everywhere.

This entry isn't very eloquent, I know, but at least this way I'll have a record of a time when everything, all of it just clicked into place.
