September 1, 2010, Check-In
Hey, EED community!
Here is your daily check-in post! White Rabbit! Happy September!
If you are posting for the first time, or new to the community, please review the community's standards, below.
1. Mod (that's me!) will post a Daily Check In post, for those who prefer to note their daily activities in response to a prompt. Please only place exercise comments here.
2. All members are encouraged to post daily independent posts about their activities, if they prefer that to a prompt.
3. Please place any NON-EXERCISE comments in independent update posts and behind a cut. Some people are sensitive to discussion of diet and nutrition. That is integral to many people's exercise activities, so I want members to be able to discuss that, but for those who are here strictly to log exercise, I would like them to be able to avert their eyes.
4. Everyone is encouraged to introduce themselves, discuss their exercise goals, and post updates on their activities. "I finally made it to running a mile!" or "I kicked up into handstand today!" are updates that we all want to hear about and share! Please put long posts and entries involving diet and nutrition behind a cut, though.
5. Aside from intro posts and injury announcements, please try to include an exercise update in every post.

Shadow yoga class -- and my knees came off the ground in mayurasana for the first time, which was freaky. Shadow yoga class is weird because things sometimes happen there which I'm fairly sure my body is not physically capable of the rest of the time.
Then I had a crappy afternoon anxiety-wise, so I grabbed my bag and walked to the park for a swim in the lido, which burned off some of the adrenaline. Only a week before they close it for the winter, and it was relatively cold, but so beautiful.

Sorry to hear about your anxiety afternoon. Nice for swimming, though!

The basic idea is to prepare the body for asanas on a physical and energetic level by working on three "preludes", which look like yoga crossed with tai chi and martial arts.
It's weird stuff and I actually find it a little scary.
Here's a chunk of the second prelude.
Sorry to hear about your anxiety afternoon.
No big deal. My brain's had kind of a rough year, which is one reason why I have so much time on my hands right now.
