My Night 9 was similar to the night 7. I was focussing my stress on the w/o and I was literaly doing everything with absolute ease. I guess you can say stress triggers how well I do in a w/o. And night 9 was great.

I just need to make myself realize that my little sister is my motivation. And cut out the stress (like my sister being in pain of the muscles spasms. pm me if you want to know.).

night 10:

--> downward facing dog: 5 times for 5 breaths

--> child and cobra: 5 times for 5 breaths

--> hero pose : 5 times for 5 breaths

--> Warrior 1: 5 times for 5 breaths (each leg)

--> Warrior 2: 5 times for 5 breaths (each leg)

-->Warrior 3: 3 times for 5 breaths (each leg)

Had to do the w/o outside because family had company. But it felt nice out at night. Real peacefull.

Night 11 was a bad time for me so I didn't get to do my w/o. Jessica went into the hospital to get the baclofen pump for her muscle spasms.

But night 12 on the other hand, I tried to make up for everything:

--> downward facing dog: 5 times for 5 breaths

--> child and cobra: 6 times for 5 breaths

--> hero pose : 6 times for 5 breaths

--> Warrior 1: 6 times for 5 breaths (each leg)

--> Warrior 2: 6 times for 5 breaths (each leg)

-->Warrior 3: 5 times for 5 breaths (each leg)

I was waiting for tip money last tuesday and I was outside while French Bastard divides it up. So I had my linen towel with me and I was doing the hero pose till he came out. It was a good 45 minitues. He kinda looked at me strangely. But I didn't care.

Been trying to get a pic of me and my uniform (for my waitressing class) up but no one has been home. Tried to do it myself and take a pic in front of the mirror but all i got was my chest. I have a habit of lookin in the camra. Oh well, I'll try to get someone get some pic of me in my uniform soon. And I promise it will be everything.


I dunno why I am posting this here but oh well.

downward facing dog. nice stretch in the legs n i got a little dizzy. no i wasn't born that way.

child pose. yea you feel that in your spine for sure. i could nap like that zzzz.

cobra. nice stretch in the lower back. i can feel how tight i am i think i'll stick with this for flexability.

i'm just doing all the breaths at once. that ok?

warrior pose. you really feel that in lower back n hips! think there is a reason i'm a lover not a fighter. ok ok i'll do more.

corpse pose. oh yea i found a favorite. i'll do that at bedtime when i do my dream about vanity mantra.

tree. NOT my favorite. i got my foot almost up that high but u can feel the foot u are standing on wiggle around to keep balance and bare feet n bare thighs pull against each other. ok ok pants for yoga.

vanity is online will continue tomorrow. great journal Shae. thanks.

See if you can find like 2 foam blocks or a bolster and put it between your shoulder blades and do the pose like that (a bulky blanket could work. i'm not sure. i better try it out). There is no better feeling then to have the chest open up doing that pose for a few minitues.

Oh, and don't worry if one boob goes one way and the other boob goes another. It takes some getting used to when you have that crap behind you when you do the pose. Got used to it after doing that pose once.
