In practicing Ashtanga yoga, Saturdays are usually rest days. Adjustments have to be made, however, when living in the world outside of Mysore, India.
Because I have to be at work by 8AM on Wednesdays, I cannot attend the early morning practice at my "shala" (I used the term loosely because we practice in a room at a gym, but it's the closest thing I've got!). So I have elected Wednesdays and Saturdays I have to work as my rest days, in addition to the New and Full Moon days.
With this schedule I am practicing between 5-6 days/week. I have actually practiced 6 days in a row, up to today, so my body is aching for a rest. My mind, however, still wants to get on the mat. I suppose the challenge for me today is to practice the other limbs of ashtanga.
I like the casual scarf and tank top look! After 6 days of yoga, it sounds like you have earned a break!
ReplyDeleteYoga Queen! I'd love to see how of the more challenging poses you have learned to do - I am constantly amazed by the poise, strength and flexibility of what I consider more "hard-core" yoga practioners!
ReplyDeleteYou are a yoga queen for sure! I am so impressed with your dedication!
ReplyDeleteYou're so hardcore into yoga. It makes me want to find somewhere and try it out this summer.
ReplyDeleteI love that you're using your India goodies in your everyday wear still. I think they make a grand addition to your outfits.
Rest is essential to restore your body to work more effectively when you exercise again. Rest and enjoy!
