cold class

halloween is kinda like the one time you can easily photograph people taking pictures of people without drawing too much attention to yourself.

my parents left town today, but not before taking me and my sister out to eat one more time. afterwards, i walked into town and loitered, waiting for the 4 pm bikram yoga to start. it rained on me a little and i couldn’t wait to get to class. the room was crowded and i was in a real strong row of people, but the heater was out. or sputtering. it felt like it was on 1 instead of 10.

that’s okay with me though. if you need heat to have a good practise, you’re kinda missing the point of the yoga. i think the heat is a prop. sure it helps you get a little loosey goosey, but without the heat you find out how limber you really are. just remember to not push yourself as much and appreciate the challenge of practising without the heat. alright heartbreakers, see you tomorrow ~m

    That’s a great way to think about the heat! I love it HOT in the studio. I just have a better practice, feel more challenged. Our heat was broken a couple of weeks ago. While I wasn’t happy about it, I realized that the heat is not the only thing we should be focusing on. I actually felt bad for the teachers because so many people were complaining. They fixed it quick in a couple of days and now it’s nice and hot again! Love your blog and pics by the way!
