30 DAY YOGA CHALLENGE

Got my yoga mat and ready to go!

I've been living at an ashram, in northern India, for 1 year and 10 months and I am only admitting this publicly for the first time - I do not like doing yoga. Yup, I ain't keen on doing downward dog or the warrior pose any more than I like having to do dishes. It's a chore, it's boring and I'd rather be doing something more fun like dancing. However, yoga asanas (postures) are proven to be good for your health and since I've been getting sick quite often these past few months, I thought - actually it was suggested to me by Swamiji - that I do yoga everyday. So I'm taking it on as a challenge. I will do yoga at least once a day for the next 30 days starting today. I've already done a class today so I'm down to 29. The countdown begins! Not sure if I'll end up feeling any better physically but the challenge sure spices things up. Why don't I like yoga and why I don't like even calling it that? Perhaps because it's not yoga.

TO BE CONTINUED....(I'm sleepy. It's 8:30pm here and my brain isn't working anymore. I was up at 5:30am for meditation. Sleeping in is waking up at 7:30am to be ready to serve breakfast at 8am! Seriously what's wrong with me.)
