We just finished a 9-day, super intense, 8hrs/day of yoga for our 300hr Advanced Training. Woah! The dedication and commitment it takes to show up physically and mentally is impressive! Why do people do this?
I think about being a kid, and going to school everyday was normal – spending many hours shifting from one subject to another, back home to play, eat then sleep, and repeat. Not that I miss “school”, but there is something as an adult where I do want to feed my mind, body and soul daily. That atmosphere of learning can give a unique kind of inner reward. This is part of the beauty of an ongoing yoga practice, especially at a place where there is a real teaching aspect. Learning and activating our brain cells keeps our brain cells alive and in use. With brain cells, its truly “use it or loose it”.
Remember how you felt in your last Ah-Ha moment? Its so good.
