It seems as though I've "lost" my backbends somewhere... it's frustrating because I thought I was making such progress throughout the summer. But why the frustration? It's interesting to observe how certain asanas are so bound up in emotion, while others aren't so much. <br />We will just keep practicing and something will happen, even if in not the way we anticipate.wandering mbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04644969265716084713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4770149787268606496.post-14043243158699466892011-10-22T17:36:15.324-04:002011-10-22T17:36:15.324-04:00I used to do that too: set a deadline for when I w...I used to do that too: set a deadline for when I will accomplish a pose. Never was able to hit the deadlines. I guess the pose comes when the body is ready, not simply if we tried harder and practiced for longer hours. I wonder if this is because we are working with an adult body? Or maybe gymnasts and dancers have no regard for the well being of their bodies? Or perhaps years of foundational hard work allow them to pick up a new routine quickly because these are not brand new movements, just variations of what they have always done? <br /><br />Don't worry too much about it. The pose will come... Just not by the time line you set that's all.Yoginihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09483919150641771008noreply@blogger.com
