Day 160

There was no early morning practice for me today because I slept in, then laid around in bed playing on the computer. I did some clothes shopping, walked the dog, ate lunch and finally got around to doing my practice in the afternoon, a couple hours before leaving to teach a class.

I almost always love an afternoon practice and this one was no exception. Even though I'm in the midst of my 'lady's holiday', I was having such a good time that I actually forgot about that at times (but still passed on the inversions). It was a very strong, deep practice and I particularly enjoyed my backbends.

Yes, you read that correctly: I enjoyed Urdhva Dhanurasana.

In celebration, I took a photograph, certain that I would see significant improvement from the last time I took a photograph of my backbend.



Alas, it looks very much the same, it just feels much better. But, come to think of it, that in itself is a remarkable improvement, so I'll take it!
