day 29

And then, there are days like today, when nothing happens the way it is suppose to ....



"Relax in the pose" is what my yoga teacher would say.  Every time she explains a new, especially demanding asana, she would wait for us to try it and after hearing us puffing and huffing and watching us getting it "right" she would calmly say: "now, realax in the pose".  Truth is, often than not this phrase brings smile to my face: here I am standing on my left foot while my right foot is behind my left ear, trying to balance, breathe, focus on my center, and now you want me to RELAX!!!!  But just like today, you give up struggling and realize that the easiest and happiest way is to just "relax in the moment".
