#redefiningyoga

When you have inner strength (you can interpret what inner strength mean, could be determination, surrender, self-acceptance, devotion or just more bones structure) and you expect less then you will living a life effortless. Intention is not your mean but it is your aim. Practice serves as a tool to reflect deeper into your intention. Not only bulding muscle and power, commit to daily practice will eliminate the fog in life, reduce expectation. This is Mukha Hasta Shirsasana A, the first of the 7 deadliest inversion asanas in Intermediate Series (Nadi Shodana). Since I am illegally execute this asana (because I'm beginner student), I enter this asana (posture) from legs wide up lifting after Prasarita Padottanasana D. In the end rules need to be bend so life isn't broken, therefore I am bending my body. Dengan kekuatan dalam diri tanpa mengharap apapun, menjalani hidup jadi tidak terlalu memaksa. Niat bukanlah jalan hidup, tapi tujuan. Latihan tiap hari mampu melihat lebih dalam, apa niat kita. Latihan akan menjernihkan embun, melihat jalan lebih terang. Keinginan dan harapan adalah embun.

Today's #RedefiningYoga Challenge pose is #trikonasana- this is my favorite variation, and I shot a little video with my favorite transitions- check my youtube later tonight or tomorrow to see it. I've been sick as hell for the past several days. I think the medical equation is probably a mixture of traveling + seasonal shifts + sensitive immune system + I wear leggings and sports bras all day regardless of season. Yesterday, in spite of my congestion/cough, I still decided to get back on my @codyapp grind and started a new (to me) @meghancurrieyoga plan (it's 'Wild & Free', if you're also a yoga geek). Anyway, even if I hadn't been sick, this class would've still kicked my ass. But a difficult practice paired with my illness meant that I spent the last few minutes of the class literally just catching my breath, both in the flow and in unintended child's pose breaks. I attend very few live classes, and it occurred to me that if I were a new yoga practitioner who wasn't very comfortable with getting my ass brutally kicked in public, I might be intimidated to attend this class in a live setting. I mean, I'm not #handstand pressing like Meghan. I'm not seamlessly moving from pose to pose. I know that these types of things don't matter, but not everyone feels that way. Many people are (understandably) intimidated by the difficulty of certain styles of yoga. But because I bid farewell to my yoga practice shame long ago, it's easy to forget that feeling comfortable with permanent beginner status doesn't happen immediately. However, we're all beginners, right? No matter what? Because even if you learn "everything there is to know", you still don't know everything. It's comforting, honestly. Anyway, I like stepping out of my comfort zone. I know it's not for everyone, but it's definitely what works for me. I like challenging myself to step beyond my boundaries. It's addictive as all hell. Plus, it's hard to get bored when you're taking a self-inflicted ass beating. PSST- Durham loves, I'll see you tomorrow for the noon flow at @durhamyoga!
