Practice #1- Evolution Power Yoga with Marcy
Today's class was almost 2 hours, and I think I ran the gamut of emotions from empowered, to distracted, to brittle, weak, nauseous, faint..... you can see the direction this is going in. If I'm being very honest with myself, I spent 15-20% of this class in child's pose. I did try to get up on my feet again several times, but each time it was a great effort just to stand in Tadasana. I could feel blood in my ears and I couldn't focus my vision in front of me. I definitely think if I had tried to push through with the balance series, I would have fainted. I actually faltered in my resolve on my very first day down there on the floor, and thought how unhappy I was and how easy it would be to quit before I really get going. I will give myself credit for the day- I did push through and participate as much as I could- but I am hoping this is the worst practice I will have this year.
Of course, because this is the bakanasana blog, we did try Crow Pose today- no success, but it's only day one, right?
Highs: made an effort to keep soft knees at all times
Lows: wrists KILLED me- could barely support plank at all byt he end of the class.
