Yoga for a Clam



 
 
 
In order to pursue a calmer mind, I've started doing yoga. It's not easy because I'm not flexible, but I'm hoping to get better.
I had wanted to take a class, but every time I've ever taken any kind of physical education class, it's been a disaster, so I'm very put off on the idea of paying someone to instruct me and a bunch of other people who are more fit than I am.
 
Fortunately You Tube is rife with yoga instruction and I've found some nice videos to work with. My goal is to be in better shape by the time I'm 50 than I am now. That gives me 18 months to work on my inner and outer health - mind, body and spirit.
 
So far:
 
The struggle with my inner monologue is getting better.
The bullet proof coffee experiment is going well.
My Zen pursuits are bringing me a sense of calm - that is elusive but still doable.
My KonMarie method has extended to my dresser drawers and they look great.
 
My writing is down the tubes unfortunately. Hopefully all this calm will bring me back to a creative place where I'm interested in writing, but for the moment, I'm just not. There's nothing there. No joy at all. So I have to leave it alone until that desire to write overcomes the desire to avoid writing.
