Today I wasn't feeling 100%. I don't often feel "under the weather" and it wasn't much, nothing serious, it didn't stop me from getting on with my day and my To Do list, but it did mean that by the time 5pm came around, the only yoga I was capable of was restorative. This time, I had the room AND all my props...my set-ups were a bit rusty and in need of some practice, but I think the hour I took, just relaxing and surrendering my body into the support of blankets and bolsters, did me good. I always "plan" to do a weekly restorative session but I'm ashamed to say that has never materialised as a habit.
I do know how beneficial this simple practice can be and yet I rarely invest the time it takes to practice it. As my science teachers always used to write in my school reports..."Caroline could do better"....
About Me
- Caroline Chapman
- Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
- I'm 40 something and live in Ottawa with my husband. We're from the UK and just spent the last year or so living in Hong Kong. Three very different countries. Right now I'm not sure how this Blog is going to evolve. All I know is that I have missed blogging from my Asia days, so I'm back. My other 2 blogs have felt like they had a distinct purpose, this one feels a bit different. It feels a bit like a blank canvas on which to start writing and just see what evolves, what transpires. This blog is a bit of a magical mystery tour for me. I want to go somewhere but I'm not entirely sure where just yet but perhaps the only way to find out where I want to go is to start moving. In any direction. And see where I end up.
