Thankful: Day 5
Today I am thankful for Yoga Mondays. Usually when Rob is gone I spend my time being strange and unproductive. I shop after work, eat takeout in my car and meander home around 7:30 with the intention of running on the treadmill.
Two hours later, I realize I've been sitting on my couch for 120 minutes. Looking at my phone or computer or both. And then I sleep there. Sometimes in my work clothes. Like I said...strange.
But not on Yoga Mondays. On Yoga Mondays, I spend my working hours drinking the recommended 8 glasses of water. I go to my natural chiropractor to get snapped back into alignment. I take the prescribed overdose of Fish Oil and vitamin B, C & E. And I follow up all this holistic preparation with 1.5 hours at Hot Yoga. Today I focused on my breathing and I truly completely let go of everything that was annoying me--work, student loans, and Facebook friends who post their political views and affiliation. I felt so happy, so balanced, so calm. I think if I'd gotten a deep paper cut, I would have bled green-tea.
Yoga Mondays are a perfect way to start my week and I'm thankful for them. It should be noted that this was my first Yoga Monday...but it's not my last.
