I'm BAAAACK!!!

Practice #1
Bikram Kearny Mesa
10 am w/ Joseph

Well the last couple months have been incredibly busy. So very much has happened in such a short time...

I completed my second semester of Anatomy & Physiology and by some act of god managed to squeak out a "B"(!!) I finished up w/ my job and didn't leave any obvious loose ends to be tidied up after I left. I sold, packed, or got rid of all my worldly possessions and dragged Buddha across the ocean to California. Got to San Diego in time to see my baby sister in her full 9-months-pregnant glory. Two gorgeous twin baby boys were born Christmas morning. Spent a low-key Christmas with my mom, my sisters, their husbands and kids. Adopted a 6 month old chihuahua-cattle dog puppy who is an absolute love. And on top of all of that I've already unpacked about 80% of my stuff and settled into my own wing at my mom's place. WHEW!!!!

Then today I went to Bikram Kearny Mesa and signed up for the $20 one week unlimited. The class was taught by Joseph who is the reigning National Yoga Champion and he is just delightful. I had a bit too much coffee in the morning so I felt nauseous and my heart was pounding for most of the class. But, after a little over a month away, it was precisely what I needed. Joseph was gracious enough to demonstrate a couple of his signature poses after class. Hard to believe that he had severe rheumatoid arthritis in his teens. Another walking-talking Bikram miracle. It felt so good to be back in the studio and I am completely fired up to get back into doing yoga every day. 7 days in a row of hot sweaty Bikram sessions should be a good kick start.

Happy New Year Everybody!!!!
