you see i realise in myself that alott of my mess ups are when I attempt to do too much at once.so you know,taking yoga one pose at a time,has made me look at other areas of my life and now I am applying the same one step at a time method in those areas too.
This is so true. You've just given a shining example of how yoga's lessons spread through the rest of your life.
For what it's worth, I find myself getting impatient with my practice sometimes, too. Those are the days I tell myself, 'I will do yoga for X amount of time and just give whatever poses my full attention in that time.' Then the practice becomes an oasis and calms and focuses me for the rest of my life.
I am starting to teach finn again today,he said the other day he was missing yoga.so we have it as part of our homeschooling...daily God willing..
Wow. He's amazing to articulate that! And to want it. But then, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!
I love the pictures. They're beautiful and a graveful reminder of what religion can offer.

Re:my daily yoga practise - 2007/12/13 01:34
hour : number three
mood when started : irritable,a little tired/low
mood when finished : peaced,neautral,creative,clear inner vision
I have to do an hour of yoga each day,I have to do an hour of yoga before a show,before a video shoot,before bed.yoga is my shield,its like my own inner world,my own inner womb where I can just be comfortable within my own skin,it takes away my voice,my thoughts and replaces me with melody and vision.It makes me realise how alive I am.nothing in the past nor future matters ,just here and now...thats all that matters.

feels like uite alott,my wrist is back in action,I was able to put weight on it and was no problem!my right shoulder is still a little tense,but much better than it was four yoga hours ago.
tonight I worked with a different dvd,the swan position,I managed to form that position,I mean I am sure I could do better,but for tonight I was very happy I could hold both ankles and round up ,excellent!!!
it was hard,I tried talking myself out of coming to the mat..but i thought about letting myself down,no way,not an option,I realy am giving this all i got.

Re:my daily yoga practise - 2007/12/17 02:56
hour number 5
I started with some deep meditation,my body and mind were restless,though I know with practise I will grow calmer.
my mind like a cool calm lake,thats my goal.
I had a few stresses surface,but I let them be washed away with my breathing.
my wrist is back in full action,only strains a teeny bit when I write,just my thumb.
I think alott of stress has been held in there.
my right shoulder still has problems,though it is constantly clunking,clicking and readjusting itself,in time it will realign and feel amazing
I have been practising with an indian dvd,I will go back to yogazone tomorrow,I like to keep some variation on my practise,it keeps it interesting for me.
a new year is around the corner,I am very exited.we are to be moving house soon,I am maintaining calmness about it and meditating/praying that all goes smooth and have been blessing the house ready fpr the new family.they have had alott of troubles and I know this house and new place will be a hug they realy need.
we are still going to finish off the painting.my new conviction:
* I always finish what I start

Re:my daily yoga practise - 2008/01/01 20:33

well here we are in 2008,I am so exited!
I am looking at my yoga routine for january.
now,I need to work out my routine around preparing for shows.I need to do 20 minutes before singing/rehearsing and then 20 minutes afterwards,applying yellow theme breathing.
so yes,40 minutes an evening,add that to the 20 minutes I do in a morning and I am doing an hour a day which is fantastic as thats what I need to be doing
hows this sound to you corinne?

Re:my daily yoga practise - 2008/01/08 20:28
This sounds fabulous! This is going to get you so energized, flexible and strong. You'll be amazing!
Also, to recap our email, a daily schedule like that is going to produce some amazing results. After a week or two, you'll start noticing a difference in your flexibility and endurance. After a month or two, you'll start reaching horizons you've never reached before. Sometime around then, you'll also start having physical breakthroughs. Your body will start to overcome some long standing restrictions and start to shift into naturally better allignment, which can remedy many long standing conditions. Also 3 - 6 months into a program of that intensity, you'll start having emotional and mental breakthroughs. These are the most exciting of all. They start transforming you life.
That's a lot of benefits. Those who climb the mountain get the view at the top. 
It's been a week since you made that commitment to yourself. How's it going?
