Time = Bend

Tonight I had a great practice... It always seem that when I have some time off from practice, I come back with a lot of strength. What happens when I practice regularly and find my stamina and strength lacking day after day? You'd think it would be the other way around. Tonight my teacher was in a consistently great, energizing, encouraging mode... he helped me with dropbacks which seemed remarkably easy and he wasn't even really holding me, just had his hand lightly by my back. I have some pretty gnarly owies on my feet so I found jump backs sorta hard, halasana excruciating...but, for the most part, I just favored them and things were good. Good practice.

I've been toying with the idea of creating an ashtanga collective.. a place for everyone with ashtanga blogs to park themselves. I spend most of my online "free" time surfing from blog to blog... most of the other blogs I read and all of the professional blogs I read come to me as an RSS feed with Newsgator... this saves enormous amounts of time (and, truthfully, the disappointment of seeing OKGR still hasn't blogged ;>). If there is enough interest, I've got the webspace and I'll take my time to do it... I think it would be pretty cool.

My trip to Canada is coming up so fast I can't believe it. Not only am I excited to spend time with Dr. (!) Lucia but the spa itself sounds like it is going to be incredible... time for yoga in the morning.. time to lay around.. time to read...
