Wonderful, John Jackson .... I am so glad to hear this feedback. 2 of my favorite sensations to experience - grounded and calm. Love love LOVE coming to YOU, Kate
Kate, it was kismet. Been challenging my left side more, and having compassion for limitations on the right. Peaceful warrior is me as well. I had just finished a small ride and then the first forward bends really hurt. Good information; back bends are essential. The screaming swan is a neat goal. You are right: everything after happy baby is super-duper enjoyable. Finally, I was psyched to implement a strategy of just finding me in all the poses, and also dropping into a new pose with my mind rather than my eyes. And today, with the faster practices I did had to cheat with my eyes to focus my tired body. Nice turnaround. Have a great weekend!
