Yoga say what???

I am in a yoga teacher training all-out bootcamp, butt-kicking weekend.  Practice #3 of the weekend with some kind of crazy pose that I can't even begin to contemplate is coming up tomorrow.  What was I thinking when I signed up for and PAID MONEY to do this???

Yoga means union.  It connects body, mind, and spirit.  If you're a runner, like me, it's mile 16 and it only takes 2 minutes to get there (as opposed to 2 hours).  Just breathe.

When I attempt some kind of crazy asana (pose) that there is no way my tight hamstring-ed runner body could even think about doing...and I get there, somewhat, with no judgment, just breathing, it's amazing.  It's Holy Spirit--wow--God is with me amazing.

So that is how I'll be worshiping tomorrow morning.

(With a dose of Advil just in case).
