Long time no see ehhh : )
Im sure nobody will even see this post but I think it might be good for me to write about the new stage Im at in life.
First, Im not really doing yoga lately, its been almost 2 months since I last did ANY yoga at all.
I had wanted to take a break for a while although it never really seemed to be a good time.
Then after attempting to practice way way uptown for about a month, I just couldnt do it anymore.
So, I joined the gym and have been going pretty much 5 days a week since. I am trying to get myself back into the headspace of getting on the mat at least a few times a week but honestly, it just insnt there right now. Prehaps its because I cant get down to AYS or AYNY, they are both out of my price range. I could go to YS, which is what it wil have to be when I do go back because I can do a workstudy type thing. But alas YS doenst totally inspire me all that much. I do get cravings to bend the body and hopefully this little blog post will be just the push I need to get up and out the door.
Part of the reason I wanted to go back to the gym is a mini midlife crisis Im going through. I want to tighten up before its too late!!! But now that that anxiety has settled down a bit I might be able to split my time.
I can tell you without yoga I have lost some clarity of mind. This is weighing pretty heavily right now seeing that in the new work environment it really helps to keep a grounded perspective on things.
Ughhhhh wirting this all down it seems so damn clear that I need to get my ass back to yoga and quickly!!!!
On the work front things are going pretty well. Class is progressing smoothly Im feeling confident about my work and Im getting along with everybody. So I’m happy!!!

Hey Jodi,
Great to hear you’re doing well.
Haven’t seen you in so long. Looks like all good things are happening for you.
Your ashtanga practice will return when life allow it to.
Congrats on the new job.
Enjoy your “mid life crisis”
Tom
