So much for taking Saturdays off instead of Sundays. I just didn’t feel like practising yesterday. To do so would have put a rush on my weekly trip to the farmer's market and after a week of rushing around, I was craving downtime. So I practised this morning (Sunday) instead.
I had a good practice - very slowly and mindfully meandered through the short form. Today's theme was breath. I felt very light and soft.
I went out on a fabulous date on Friday - this was one that I actually looked forward to, since it was with someone I had met in 'real life', rather than online. She treated me to a scrumptious meal at this incredible café, we took a walk down through the city, then caught funky art film. It was a great night. She doesn't seem fazed by my early-morning Ashtanga schedule (though she was curious what past girlfriends thought of it) or my practice of CR.
We're meeting up again today for bicycling and the beach.

Hi Kai
Sounds wonderful. And you're so disciplined with your practice. I also have difficulty practicing Saturdays, for the same reasons (laundry, meditation, groceries), unless there is a led class.
Cheers,
Arturo
Thanks, Arturo! By the way, I'm taking Salsa lessons. Soon, I'll be mixing Salsa moves into my Astanga practice ;-)
oo, I'm yeallous. My dharma friend Joan is a zen priest and she used to be a professional dancer. She's been telling me I need to resume salsa. I just haven't. She says it could be a practice. There is a place on the Mission called Rio Cantina, maybe I should go this Sunday, since my sutra reading group is cancelled this week...It starts early enough at 3:00pm...
Cheers,
Arturo
