Om for the Holidays!

Every year I treat myself to a little gift or two at Christmas time.

I know it's completely selfish but I always end up spotting

something grand and that voice appears out of nowhere.

You know the one:

"Go on... you deserve it!"

But this year, instead of treating myself to something that's

only going to make me feel good for a day or two,

I am punishing my body namastaying my way

through the holiday break.

I read this awhile ago and haven't stopped

thinking about how much I can relate.

Specifically this:

I need to change so many things about my life,
it's hard to know where to start. I need physical
and spiritual transformation, from the mental to the
muscular to the molecular. I need to stop treating my
body like a landfill. I need stability, which I haven't
seen in so long, I've forgotten how it feels.
I need a reset button.

So I just signed up for a membership to

Bikram Yoga Birmingham

located a convenient 5 minutes from my house.

I start tomorrow - day one of my break

from school - and I can't be more excited!

Hoping to ring in the new year less stressed,

a few lbs lighter, and with a much clearer mind.

Namaste!
