It was a great night for Astanga Yoga! With this time change and cooler weather, meditation at the end of class was exactly what I needed! In the evening the studio really sets the mood for yoga, its great. So great that it made me forget about all the homework and chores I had waiting for me at home- so peaceful.
This time, I settled very gently into every pose and took in the yoga readings for the day as I moved through the postures. I achieved some new poses and progressed to binding and more advanced stages. I didn't resist tension this time, just surrendered to it, breathed deeply and put myself in a higher state of being. Lots of progress in todays class. Jessica has always said to surrender to the tension, not to fight it and I never quite understood what was meant by that until today.
Meditation at the end of class yielded a completely peaceful me...so peaceful that I didn't even get mad after class when I went to start my car and found that it was not working...
