Get it? Savasana is the best part of yoga. It's when you can lay in all your sweaty glory and come the closest you've ever been to falling asleep on a wood floor. Until you're abruptly woken up to the voice that just kicked your ass for the past hour.
Anyway, Savasana + day seven = sevensana. It's simple math.
Today Katie and I took seperate classes because of schedule problems. She took a 9:45am power yoga basics in the flow studio (not hot) and I took a 5:30pm slow flow (when I say slow I mean slllllloooooowwwww) in the flow studio (not hot, and by not hot I mean there were fans going. I was actually somewhat chilly at one point). It was nice to unwind and take an easier class after a long first week. The studio we took our class in yesterday was 99 degrees, so I think we deserved a room temperature work out today.
Reflections of the week (weak?):
1. My thighs are still thick. But "thunder thighs have more muscle" according to our instructor
2. It is okay to be shown up in class by a woman 3-4 times your age
3. Dish towels can substitute as sweat towels
4. Classes don't get much easier as you go
5. I only have enough yogi clothes to last five days. Including two days where
I am the only girl wearing spandex shorts in the entire studio. Apparently spandex shorts aren't cool for yoga, I gotta do more research about it cause the shorts felt greeeeat. Men in yoga wear shorts... maybe it's a sexist thing. I don't think so.
6. If you leave any article of clothing in your car after a hot yoga class it will takeat least six days for the sweat to dry, if it ever does
7. Do laundry every three days to avoid numbers 5 & 6
