Day 15...Blerg.

I don't know what's happening with my body but it feels as if it's decided to reject yoga.  I missed class Thursday and ever since I've felt stiff, sore, and completely inflexible.  It's like I haven't been practicing for the past 3 months at all!  WTF??  I'm discouraged.  Yesterday I accepted that my body was just not warmed up very well at that early hour.  But today I went at noon.  I'd been up for a couple hours, walked to the studio, and just assumed my body wouldn't be so tight.  On the positive side, I wasn't nearly as hard on myself today.  I tried to just go with the flow and not focus too much on my limitations.  So that's good.  I'm still going tomorrow and I'm hitting up the 4pm class to see if there's a difference.  I've also been considering trying to add some different activities to supplement the hot yoga.  I'd like to start riding my bike again now that the weather is starting to improve.  Plus going for walks and hikes are more appealing as it warms up as well.  I'm ready to cancel my gym membership that I rarely use.  That saves $40/mth that can go towards yoga.  And I'd like to do some ab and upper body work.  I have hand weights so this could be done at home, preferrably after yoga while I'm still warmed up.  So I've got some options.

Regardless of the activity, I know it helps.  It's really that simple.  Even a crappy yoga class has it's benefits.
