CK since Sunday

Oi. Sunday was hiking. We did a big piece of the Limberlost Trail, and went down toward the White Oak Falls. A serious hike of about 1.5 hours. NO YOGA, dang it! The 40 days were going so well! Monday. NO YOGA. RL needed me to leave work early, so I left the house WAAAY early. No time. Exercise consisted of a brisk walk around downtown Fairfax - about 20 minutes. Tuesday. NO YOGA. Felt ill, like I was going to throw up. Went back to bed. No exercise of any kind yesterday.

FINALLY!

Today, the Spiral Meditation and Foundation Vinyasa from Fluid Power (Shiva Rea). Then did about 10 minutes of handstand work. Kicked all the way up three or four times, but couldn't hold it. Then some self-guided back bending, supine postures, and forward bending/hip opening, concluding with Boat and Sivasana with meditation. Not a perfect sequence, but not bad. Sadly, with all the RL going on, had squirrel-brain throughout the yoga, that didn't even really stop as I was breathing through the chakras in Sivasana. Oh, well. Hopefully, the RL drama will end by sometime tomorrow, and I can regain some equanimity.

*sends positive energy for the RL stuff* Real Life can be such a bother sometimes.

You are so rocking the handstand work. If you can kick up, it's only a matter of time before you stay there.

What's the problem at the moment? Are your feet bouncing back off the wall?
