Today was a really important day in class...not so much because of the yoga but the meditation before class. I try to meditate at least for a few minutes before and after class, laying down in Savasana. Today, I reached a new place in my meditation. Hard to describe other than it was exhilarating and incredibly peaceful at the same time. There was something about the silence of the room, and that sound (of silence...queue the Simon & Garfunkel song) that took me in to a deeper level of concentration on my breath and stillness. The coolest part is that that concentration stayed with me through the entire class and I went deeper in most postures than I ever have before. It really takes time and is challenging to meditate but the slow rewards that come are amazing and I'm so grateful to finally be seeing them. Nothing worthwhile comes easy...as they say.
Angel of the the day: RISK
