21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 5

Today was the hardest day of yoga of all.  I didn’t make it to class.  Or “to my mat” as the yoga people say (I think they say this, I am still a total newbie!).  There were two times I could have possibly made it to yoga.  Neither worked.  As each one passed, I felt some loss and attachment to my 21 days of yoga.  I watched my attachment and let it go.  I felt loss, I watched it.  I let it go.  I am a mother first and my children needed me today.

I have become attached to my yoga.  I followed up with a friend who says she can take my kids with her to church this morning so I can go to yoga.  I can’t wait to get back to my mat.

I am completely aware of my life and my choices and how it is okay to take care of myself in the ways that I can–not always exactly how I want to.  The class tomorrow isn’t the exact class I wish I could take, but it is a great class and I am so grateful I can go.  I can’t wait!

I am still going to make my 21  classes in 21 days–now I just have to find a time when I can do 2 classes in one day to make it all work.
