Namaste, Y’all

So WoYoPracMo is upon us. The goal is to practice yoga every day in January. That is quite the challenge to me. But truth be told, it couldn’t come at a better time than a time of needed healing. So I endeavor to start well.
Anyone who practices can acquire the yoga siddhis (powers), but not one who is lazy. Yoga siddhis are not obtained by merely reading textbooks. Nor are they reached by wearing yoga garments or by conversation about yoga, but only through tireless practice. This is the secret of success. There is no doubt about it.
Hatha Yoga Pradipika (Chapter 4, Verses 65-66)
Of course, I read that in one of my yoga texts. But I like the spirit of this charge–Do! I was once given good advise by someone far wiser than me, “It’s time to stop thinking and start writing.” He meant it in my selecting the path of my career. But it is farther reaching in my life than just that. Here’s a case of stop blogging and get to the mat. So that’s where I’m off to, my yoga mat.
Namaste, y’all!
Stumble it!
Happy Yogaing! I have taken a few Yoga classes at the gym and always to expect this WOW feeling…this feelign of complete and utter relaxation, almost like an out of body experience. And I never do…and so I don’t take it again for months. I really should start again and jsut realize that I’m not going to have that feeling immediatley, or possibly never. But it will help me to destress and relax over time. Thanks for the motivation!
Happy New Year!

Good luck to you darlin’!
