Practice Post 2

I absolutely LOVED class on Tuesday. One of my favorite things to do is laugh, and I did plenty of that in class. I like that we are learning to be ok with what our bodies can and cannot do; and, not to compare between ourselves.
My favorite part of class on Tuesday was the improvement I could see from pose to pose. When we did the pose (wish I could remember the name) that involved wrapping your legs and arms up, and then went back and did tree pose again, I was much more balanced. And, we did downward facing dog, a lot. Honestly, when Dr. Schultz was talking about feeling like she was dying in virasana, that is how I am feeling in downward facing dog. However, when we did supta virasana and then downward facing dog, I felt much better. The different stretches help me move in ways I didn't think possible, especially on day 3.
I can't wait to see what else I can do tomorrow!

  1. Ya, I liked class on Tuesday too. I don't remember the actual name for the "wrapping up" pose, but I think Dr. Schultz called it the eagle pose. I definitely had trouble twisting my legs around each other. It was especially hard for me to balance during that pose. I also noticed that my tree pose and my downward facing dog pose improved after learning the more difficult poses, especially supta virasana. That pose was killer.
