Ocho Dia!

Once again, I made it to the 630am....believe it or not! Y Thuan is motivating! I have really been enjoying walking to and from the studio everyday. Great mental preparation and I can unwind before I start my day. So as promised daily posture focus...Pranayama...aka standing deep breathing. there are several benefits: Good for lungs and respiratory system Helps with mental relaxation Helps high blood pressure Relieves irritability Good for detoxification Exercises nervous, respiratory and circulatory systems The breathing can be tricky and is something I am trying to master I really want to enjoy the benefits! The one thing I will tell you is today I had massive traffic and if it wasn't for Bikram I would have probably been a road rage queen.....So getting up and giving myself the time I deserve....huge win through the whole day...Winner winner chicken dinner! I went to the movies tonite and saw In Time...it really makes you think! I also have been trying to continue my new years resolution by cooking at least one new thing per week! I made an awesome chicken sausage pasta with red onion, yellow peppers, spinach, asparagus, red peppers with lots of garlic! So yummy and so colorful! I'm trying to get all my veggies in everyday and laying off the sauce.....no alcohol! Friends have been noticing my checkins on foursquare and I have 2 more wanting to come to give Bikram a try....This made my day! See you guys in class mañana!
