Back to reality

Well, back to the grind for me. I went back to work yesterday after two months off. To end my 'summer', my boyfriend and I went to the lovely Fort Bragg/Mendocino coast for a camping trip. It was 60s with mixed fog and sun during the days, and it got to <50 at night, and boy was I freezing! I don’t know what it is; maybe my body has just been conditioned for the heat of Bikram yoga now, ha. Or, my mom said it could do with having more muscle on my body right now; not sure. I ended up wearing four layers on my top half some nights. 















Despite a great trip, it was such a shock to go from 60 days of nonstop yoga to none; I missed it a lot. There was a studio in Mendocino, but I never ended up going because we kept pretty busy. I picked up a few bad habits during camping [drinking a little alcohol, and 3 cookies after no sugar for a month], but those habits are gone again and I’m back to my clean eating. We ended up coming back a night early to relax, so I got to go to yoga Sunday, which went well. I thought I'd fall apart during class and be stiff, but I was very flexible, more flexible than I have been even on my best days. I locked my knee immediately during standing head to knee, and I was even able to hold it up. I also went last night, but I felt a little out of it and distracted. Everyone in class just seemed kind of out of sync. No yoga today, but I’m shooting for atleast 3 more times this week [hopefully 4 or 5].


Time to buckle my seat belt; life is going to get busy again...
