Etiquette

 

Vakrasana - Twisted Pose

I have a custom of informing the yoga teacher if I will be missing a class.

Currently, I also :

- Make use of the ladies locker room, both pre and après asana.

 - Bring and use a gaudy, very not-yogi, plastic water cup. 💦

- Twist hair into a standing-bun or plait tresses into a lying-down-braid  (clips at the ready). 

- Gravitate to any location in the room, but always roll my yoga RUG out TENDERLY.

 - Borrow blocks. 💙💙

AND, most imperatively,  happy to change my ways ;) 🙃🧺🧿 

What are your yogic ticks ?? 🐜 

Flush

 

Parivrtta Utkata Konasana - Revolved Goddess Pose

The DailyDooDoo - Jettison a substantial chunk of your closet, kitchen, garage, office or other chosen area of collection and notice vastly improved digestion and elimination. Sweet RELEASE !!! 💩 😊 

Towhead 🌾

Setu Bandha Sarvangasana- Bridge Pose 🛝 

SUNdays are brilliant. The sun shone so bright today I thought it turned my yellow T-Shirt white whilst walking out in its light. Single minded on the HOLY SPIRIT this Sunday.  🌾 

Obstacles

 

Malasana - Garland Pose - Yogi Squat

Ganesha (on Mala) - remover of obstacles 

Ganesha - remover if obstacles. I thought I was Spring Cleaning a few months back - CLICK - with my PILES of bags and MULTIPLE donation pick-ups, but an advanced avenue has been illuminated (removing far more,) and I may be on the precipice of reaching another frequency IF I can solve the puzzle, defeat the boss, and level up.

🗑️ Into the bin if they do not qualify as such.

• Puzzles: These are challenges that require the player to think strategically and often interact with the environment or objects to progress. Successfully solving a puzzle might unlock a path, reveal a clue, or open a door to the next section of the game.
• Boss Battles: These are encounters with a formidable enemy, typically more powerful than regular enemies encountered in the level. Defeating the boss signifies the completion of a challenging section and often unlocks a key item, a new ability, or access to a new area. 

Recalibrate

 

Setubandha Sarvangasana - Bridge Pose

BRIDGE the gap between the old/now you and the next you. 🌟

Sigh

 

. 

Parivrtta Upavistha Konasana - Revolved Seated Angle Pose

One positive habit does lead to another. The same is true for negative habits. SIGH. 

Begin again

Ashta Chandrasana - Crescent High Lunge

Within the supposed confines of REPETITION there is always something novel to notice. Perform one-thousand-and-some times the same set yoga posture sequence and no two practices will ever be alike.  

 

BORING

Virabhadrasana II - Warrior 2

 I 🤍🤍🤍 boring. Rise at a predictable time. Attend booked yoga class. Shop my cleared-out closet. Eat unexemplary foods. Make order. Pass extended unremarkable time with the family at home. What else can I BORING-IFY???

Thank you, boring! Let boring save you. 

Look up 💡

Utkatasana - Fierce Pose

LIGHT skies (for a few weeks stretch now) at the 5am wake-up call. I keep thinking I overslept!  No use for a flashlight to head out to yoga class. 🔦 Fewer layers, less preparation, more time to mix a cold brewed concoction🧋 

 

No Opining

Winged Dragon YIN Yoga 🐉 

(YIN Variation of Ashwa Sanchalanasana - Crescent Low Lunge Pose Variation Knee on Floor

and Utthan Pristhadana - Lizard Pose)

⭐️ Summer Freedom. ⭐️ How about a RECESS from our own opinions? ⭐️

What ?? NO OPINION ?? OUI !! Super chill 😎 Besides, we can always form one later … 

Nirvana

 

Salamba Bhujangasana -  YIN Sphinx Pose

A LIGHTER TOUCH when parenting, house-working, e-mailing, dressing… does in reality yield astonishing results. I am, for the very first time, sympathizing with this 80/20 rule that I was never before able to appreciate (or even mildly apprehend). 

Acting basic

 

Parsva or Parivrtta (Prasarita) Balasana - Side or Revolved (Wide) Child’s Pose

aka Urdhva Mukha Pasasana - Thread the Needle, Child’s Pose Variation 

Pasa - Noose, Cord

NORMCORE - normal is hardcore ;)

Some poses are BIG and SHINY, some are SMALL and MATTE. NORMCORE — Find gratification and satisfaction in the common, plain, and ordinary. Liberation is yours! in the functional and indistinguishable; in being (and owning?) nothing special.
