Today is November the fifth- a complete week from the day I started Yoga, Meditation and Tea! I have to say, wow, wow, wow! Just doing this for a week has changed my life!
Here are some things that changed in my life with yoga:
- more energy!
- more relaxed!
- easier to laugh throughout the day!
- more of a sense of well being
- more flexible (I can almost do the splits-almost)
- stronger !
- less tense!
Here are some things that changed in my life with meditation:
- calmer
- more of an ability to step back from problems
- easy going
- less quick to anger
- less annoyed
- easier to focus on my self-my well being
What happened to the Tea? Well it sort of disappeared! I couldn't take drinking tea after fifteen minutes of concentrated meditation. Drinking the tea was almost like another form of meditation which was too much for me-at least for now!
I think I am going to try my hardest to continue with the meditation and yoga. I just got an additional job to the one I have, and I think I will need to have my center before I go out into the world of two jobs!
What was my Yoga, Meditation, and Tea schedule like?
- Thirty minutes of yoga (Three full sun salutations)
- Sometimes listening to music during the yoga while singing really helped
- Being concious of the breath during Yoga helps make sure you are doing the same amount of time on each side of the body
- Mediation for 10-15 minutes (really dependent on how I felt)
- Concentrate on the breath
- Feel the inner body
- Listen to the silence around me
*I have to note that with feeling good through yoga and meditation, my body seemed to crave foods that were better for it-most of the week I started my day off with water, then a fruit smoothie, and two bowls of salad somewhere in between regular eating. I also found that it was easier for me to know that I was full, and not overeat-maybe it came from the yoga, the meditation, or maybe its harder to overeat healthy foods that are harder to chew!
