I’m just going to start off with :
Ughhhhhhhhhh! This was the longest day
ever!
Let me just be clear, that even though I
have my certification to teach yoga doesn’t mean I fit the profile of what a
typical yoga teacher would be. I mean, sure I’m a vegetarian, but… lol… I like
my wine and ceasar’s, and I smoke like a chimney. Oh the vices that keep me
SANE! So if your thinking those who can’t do teach……..you are absolutely right!
This day was all about not knowing what to
do with myself. The hardest part was to be successful or at least functional in
my work environment. Mornings have always been difficult for me.
However, detoxing and being smoke free made it
cognitively difficult on top of all this. It was hard to even have the
attention span to follow people’s sentences, let alone attach the appropriate
reaction to what was being said to me.
By the end of the day, I had gotten my reaction delay to about a minute
before I finally figured out that I could just copy everyone else’s reaction
and see where it got me. I mean, someone could have probably told me that I
smelled like horse manure and I would have laughed something fierce.
Sigh!
It was just one of those days.
At the end of it, when I knew I had to do
yoga, I just wanted to lie down and cry.
I wanted to go to sleep and wake up 30 days later, when this was all
over with. I wanted to shut the world out.
The
beginning of the class was rocky but by the end, my monkey mind began to settle
slowly, and all the anxieties that my body had fought for during the day had
either retired from relaxation or just pure old exhaustion.
……………..29 days to go! Someone please just
punch me in the face !
