been so long...

sorry its been so long but you can get lost in your practice

well i only practice ashtanga once a week and i totally skip the poses that hurt and numb my knee
thats it.

i also throw in extra poses to keep the juice flowing and close the practice early around mari c...

i know think ashtanga is too long, too achievement oriened and too strenuous...paul girlly said it had the highest dropout rate of any yoga....i can see why poeple like it, and i can remember why i used to love it but leaving it behind has been way way easier than i expected even though i have had to study a lot more, read a lot more, think a lot more now that i practice a more aligned hatha practice

and interesting i breathe and flow into my more aligned hatha practice...it is still dynamic but often i find myself lookig for a pluse in the pose and ways to feed and grow and pulse the pose with breath...more on this later...

peace.
