Been fiercely trying to do my work/daily disciplines + homework; between 10 hour days and yoga homework I have yet to do my day of silence or teach a class... somehow I want to make both happen tomorrow. I will be teaching yoga tomorrow morning in Christine and Andrew's living room to whomever can make it (so far they are the only two confirmed; Laura might join in; Amy's out of town, as will be Bryce and Pippa). I know we were encouraged to make it a community event but in all truth I don't have such a venue. I don't belong to a church and I did not want to make my class available in the studio at Lifetime. I'm not ready for that yet (by that I mean, I don't want people to come in expecting it be high caliber when I'm really just working on getting it all down)!
Going to teach them Vinyasa flow by: Setting Sacred Space, Igniting the Spirit (breath), Igniting the Flame (Sun As, Bs, Cs), Stoking the Fire (logs), Utilizing the Fire (yin poses) and Conscious Surrender (Inversions, final postures, savasana). I just went through the entire sequence verbally on my own, it sounds fine. Now I'm wondering if I should have a playlist? I feel like I should to make it more fun or movement as a celebration of life.
I have remarked to several people this week how I have been avoiding my journaling. Darn it! I guess I just feel vulnerable, like I am looking into a mirror when I am writing. In class today it came to my attention that I need to do this no matter "how bad" I think I look. That is my ego getting in the way; it doesn't matter. I need to get the most out of this practice and that can't be done without doing the homework.
