Back to school...

So I made the transition...back to the real world. Back to getting up early, working all day, being tired and still trying to keep up with the rest of my life. And here I am! Blogging at 9:21pm on Wednesday. Perhaps a small accomplishment, but one of which I am still proud.

I have also got my practice in this week which is one of the reasons I am so late. I took my friend and co-trainee, Sam's class tonight. It was fabulous. She spoke a lot about kula, community and how great we have it here in Austin. We really have a lot of support which makes it easier for me to take on these tough challenges. I was able to do Eka Pada Urdhva Dhanurasana even after climbing up my walls today, getting my room ready for the kiddos!

Sam also spoke about being grateful for this support and that really hit home for me. I am truly grateful and need to keep reminding myself of this when times get hard. So thank you to all of you who support me even when I don't have my stuff together.

This week I am talking about raja in my classes. How we can bring a sense of royalty or nobility to our poses. Of course Monday night it was a royal mess due to the intense heat and humidity. But we're past that now, well, not the heat and humidity, just the class. Hopefully Saturday will go better...
