Lovely Morning with Yoga

Feb. 27, 2006

Last night when I went to bed after watching ice hockey final at the Olympics, I wasn’t sure whether I could go to yoga practice this morning. I practiced Ashtanga yoga yesterday and I thought I might be pretty tired today. (Ashtanga is still very intense for me.) Though I couldn’t sleep well last night, it wasn’t hard for me to get up at 6:30 AM. I didn’t feel that tired. Then went to Mysore class.

Most poses are quite challenging and often I feel it’s impossible to do it even in the future. But in the practice, I felt my body was much stronger than before though it was very still stiff.

Comfortably sweat, I felt great and energetic after the practice. Lovely morning, I thought on the way to work from yoga studio.

昨日寝る前に今朝のヨガのクラスのことを考えた。昨日もアシュタンガヨガのクラスに行ったので今日もヨガをやる元気があるかどうか予想がつかなかった。(アシュタンガヨガは私にとって まだかなりハードなヨガなので。)夜はよく眠れなかったけれど朝6時半に起きるのはそんなに大変じゃなかった。疲れた感じもしなかったのでマイソールのクラスへ。

まだどのポーズもかなり難しいしこの先もまったくできるようになる気がしないこともしばしば。それでも今日は自分の体が前よりも強くなったのを感じた。まだまだ体は硬いけど。

気持ちいい汗をかいて、気分はすっきり、元気も出た感じがした。ヨガの教室から会社に向かう道で思った、lovely morning : )
