A daily journal of my challenge to myself to practice yoga every day for a year, in any shape or form, and to document the effects and experiences it has on my life.

Body Language
I had the most beautiful thing happen today. I had several things I had planned to do with my afternoon, when it all didn't go as planned. Sammy ended up napping (not his usual) and it is a gorgeous day out- did you hear the birds singing? The boys played outside most of the afternoon, and I practiced yoga in my sunroom. My body was a callin' for some yogaaaaaa loving! Sun is shining, I felt like a warrior discovering her body, all my aches and little pains being worked out, all with the guidance of millions upons millions of cells firing from the tips of my toes and on up to my fingertips. This is the best I can remember, and not as much detail!
