Hello lovelies
bloody hell... so much to take in... and its all finding a place somewhere in my being... The last couple of days have been fantastic.... still taking in a lot of facts but feeling a whole heap of changes internally.. The adjustments in morning practise surely sink in!
talking of morning practice... i haven't had a melt down yet... but yes i'm sure it will come (like the seasons)... at the moment i'm starting to get to know about engaging my abdominals and perineum... i feel like ive had fleeting glimpses of what it feels like.... i'll write more when i feel like i have something useful to share.... However in backbends this am i was instructed to engage them really strongly.... and it was amazing... i realised that i never really have before and how much safer i felt
today we got into adjustments... - gentle very gentle ones in salutes and then in lotus........john likes to teach yoga students (first time ones!) lotus as soon as they've learnt salutes so they can finish properly... he uses a lot of isometric work and gentle manipulation... so al that hip work there was quite a lot of releases going on in the room.........
we've been practising counting in sanskrit and conducting the salutes... and after a while (like repetition for an hour on the walk to the shop and back) it starts to roll off the tongue... new appreciation Helen!
anyway better go and do my home work
hope all's well in your worlds
