Breakthrough in yoga

Bikram

 

Had an amazing breakthrough at Bikram Yoga Green Valley today. There were two poses left, and I was convinced I needed to stop, but John the instructor said not to quit now, that this is where breakthroughs happen and we should go at it as though we just got to class. I took it on and felt all my strength come back. It felt so empowering, and once I did, and got into the meditation pose, my brain flooded with thoughts and ideas for a project at work that would make it both more enjoyable and more successful.

 

If you’ve never tried Bikram, you’ll feel like you’re going to die the first few times, but it’s some of the most soul transforming physical work I’ve ever done.
