My goal will begin January 1st!

YOGA....Not only an intention, but a discipline, I must submit to. My body, and my mind will be forced to reap the benefits of a daily practice like none I have undergone before. Sure, I have had weeks, even months of a strong home practice, practicing asana 3 to 5 times a week, and mixing in a little prayer and meditation while I'm at it. How many times I cannot count anymore that I have intended to get out of my warm bed at 5:30 in the morning to practice the art of stillness and observation of the deep, recesses of the mind, and the complexities of my body. How often, have I, continued to hit the snooze, until it was to late, and alas, I'm rushing myself and my kids along for the busyness of the morning routine. My commitment to a daily practice has been weak. I have fallen short of my expectations. It is time to make a difference, time to shake myself up, to cool myself off, in the early morning darkness, the emerging sun from the great shadow of night will witness to my open eyes watching and waiting with eager receptivity to hear its wisdom and language of no words. How many of us are truly present for longer than a moment? I will document my journey, starting new years day, with my observations about life, my practice, insights, and experiences steeping myself in the yoga practice. Tune in soon to a soul ride of my life!
