Week 18: Get asana-ing.

I love yoga. It is a huge part of my life. When I'm on my mat I feel things shift; the weight of the world drops away and it's just me. Listening to the melody of my movements, the flow of my breath; I'm there. It's mindfulness in motion. Bliss.

I practice several times a week (well, usually). Yet, despite knowing how it makes me feel, sometimes getting onto the mat is hard. As I catch sight of my beautiful orchid-hued yoga mat waiting patiently for me, I know I will not regret a few moments, or maybe even an hour or more (!) on its back. Still, there are times when I walk on by, prioritising some other task instead.

Not this week though. This week I'm going to do my asana (the physical postures of yoga) practice every single day. Every day. At least once. No excuses.

While I'd love to stay here blogging for longer, I can hear my yoga mat calling. I'm off to get asana-ing.
