Day 2

It’s dark, before the sun has come up. I feel alive though. Hands and knees on the mat, I immediately want to move into my hips, they make cracking sounds as I gently circle them, I fold in and out of child’s pose. All the attention is in my lower body, it feels good. I want to stretch my feet sideways from the ankles, there’s a slight feeling of release.

I feel air in my belly.  Thoughts come up about an email I read this morning, then they fade. 

Resting, I notice how nice it feels to breathe.  How delicious it is to just breathe. Funny. 

My hips and stomach feel good stretched out flat. 

My body does a couple of those breaths that you do when you’ve been crying, the ones where you take 3 breaths in 1. 

When I open my eyes, it’s light, and there’s rain on the window.

Practice duration: 18 mins
