My Yoga Journal: Finding the Peace

Well, I officially have 2 more classes before its all over. And Its 2 more weeks till I make a fresh journal here on Iron Mag.

So I bring to you this question: Since yoga brings me peace, what brings you peace? :hmmm:
 
I agree with Sister Billie!!! Lookin good in here Sister Shae, you psyche me up because your so into it, my hats definatly off to you my Friend!!!
 
Well, I certainly know for sure that the last few weeks of school and w/o does not mix well. :mad: I have been getting little done in terms of w/o since last Saturday since the exams are comming up and eating my thoughts alive. It makes my balance poses (like downward dog) seem a bit shakey. But I only have 2 weeks left before school is done with for winter break. But I plan to take a semester or two off so the only worry I have is getting a job. Then I will have my focus on perfecting my yoga w/o with minimal worry. ;)

AND in w/o news.....:hehe:

I'm getting into this meditation a lot. And I wonder if it would make the difference like help me hold my balance poses better and not seem so shakey. Here is what I am reading right now:

I just got done with the first chapter now and I am liking it. :) I'm going to listen to the disc the book has and try some of these meditation techniques out. Mainly do meditation to begin the w/o tonight and see what happens.
 
Have you read "The Art of Happiness"? It's a great read...
 
Sister Shae, sending you nothin but the best!!! :thumbs:
 
The Art is written by the Dali. It's a very cool book. I read it a couple of years ago, but keep it on my shelf...you know, just in case...

meditations that encourage visualizing a specific journey are cool too. meet your spirit guide, totem animal and so on. you can find a lot of cool meditation music and audio files like waves on limewire.
 
Guess what, all? I received the final exam from Georgeanna tonight. And it was the easiest mother mucker ever. :thumb: All I had to do was tell her what I got out of the class and would I take the class again. That was it! :p

And now for a new pose I learned:

:hello:

Hey all. I have one more class left and its this Friday. Yea, I have a little somthing whipped up for my last post or two here before I make a new journal. It will include my self evaluation, and my game plan on what I plan to work on every day and which poses I should include in the w/o for the place on the body (legs, tummy, arms...).

So with that in mind....


......................................................................................................

Did some leg work tonight. Felt nice since I was on my butt all day doing final projects and cramming for final exams.

Lunge: 3X5

dancer: 3X5

warrior 3: 3X5

figure 4: 3X5

chair: 3X5

eagle: 3X5

tree: 3X5

I know it wasn't much but it was just enough to give myself feeling in my legs again. :thumb: :laugh:

are you going to take more Yoga classes??
I wish I can but I don't have any money. :( The classes are being offered for like 60 bucks a semester. As soon as I get a new job, I'll take more classes again. :)
 
You know that meditation book I am reading? I found somthing interesting in there about meditation through eating. It was somthing else. :) Its like I kneel down on both knees and i have a plate of some fruit and nuts. And there is this disc in the book that has the tracks to listen to about the sorts of meditations. I turn it to the track about meditation through eating and did it. So detailed that meditation practice is. :lol: It says I need to focus on my hand reaching the food and placing the food in my mouth. Gee, I taste the food but only time I feel my arm and hand move is when I pick up and eat food! :haha: For my w/o, I just focused on my back tonight with upward dog and dolphin pose.

Well in other news........

My last school day is Tuesday and I'm done for vacation. (Well, 2 semesters actually) I got offered 2 jobs today. One is at a Little Ceaser's pizza here in Phoenix. The other is an aide for a disabled student at my local elementry school. I'm gonna weigh out everything and see which one I choose. I'll choose the aid job and see what the Pizza place has to offer to make me decide to stay. :p

Well, this is my last post here in my journal. And now I will give you my summery about how well I did:

I was stressing big time with school work and big projects in some weeks and I'd miss w/o's and have a cheat day. I lost my 2 pack for a while about a month ago but I'm starting to get it back. School is ending so I can focus more on perfecting my yoga w/o.

I want to thank the peaople who have read and placed their 2-cents in this thread. Billie, Marcia, Mr. Archangel, and Pylon , I leave you this prair:

I thank you kindly for going on this journey with me.
