world's worst yogini

 

Ok. I know I didn't keep my promise about writing regulary, but it's gonna change. As one of my yoga teachers suggested, this year (the year I'm learning about yoga and attending my teacher training) is gonna be a year only for me. As I dont write my journal as I should, this will be my way of keeping notes.

First, few things about me and yoga:
  •  I am extremly lazy when it comes to self-practice...I love to practice, I really do. But aduring my dancing days I got used to having people around me while practicing and it feels weird doing it at home, alone, with no one to tell me if I do my positions the right way. So, as in my TT I have to develop self-pracite, I'va managed to do it max 2-3 times per week. I know, I'm a poor yogini :(
  • The thing that kept me in yoga is the way that you always have something to aspire to. And the feeling when you do the position you haven't done before is like a drug to me
  • I like the way yoga made me more self-concious...although I think I am still at the beginning of my yoga path, i've already felt some improvements. 
  • Meditation - for me, it's the worst thing. Or is it the chanting? I dunno....Every time I try to meditate, I become nervous. No matter how many times I try, it just doesnt work for me. And chanting - me singing in front of the people, no way. Om is just fine :)
  • Not a vegetarian, not a vegan. As much as most of the yoginis avoid meat, I have to say it I love it. Junk food included.
So, considering all of the above, I might just be a worlds worst yogini...But I don't care. And nobody else should, because that's the true beauty of yoga - it is what you want it to be :)

    LOSTIE....

    Watched Lost yesterday, had to catch up....Although I am currently following way too much TV series (Gossip Girl, Grey's Anatomy, Private practice, HIMYM and Lost), Lost fever hasnt stopped yet. I mean, who can resist half naked men wondering around the beach all the time?? But thats not all...despite Sawyer and his comments being my favourite on the show (who can resist a bad guy with a good heart, his sexy look and dirty mind, LOL), I find some comfort in looking them all stumble acros that island for 6th season already (read: other men are also not bad at all, heheh). It had some ups and downs, but still, its gotten to be one of my top 10 series all the time.

    And when it ends...maybe I'll start from the begginig :))
