I had a little hurried practice this morning because I had to be at work by 7:30. But it felt good nevertheless. Keith adjusted me in Parivritta Parsvakonasana so that my chest was facing the ceiling and the back of my head was turned towards the floor. I told him that there was no way I could keep balance and dristi on my hand. He answered that those "fixed" dristis are in fact not fixed all that much. The major purpose of dristis, he said, is to keep the gaze from wandering, and it does not really matter which point you choose for fixation.
Tova was there, too. She has such a sunny presence, she practically lights up the room. I think "Cranky" is the misnomer of the century.
A lot of work today. An immunology class in the evening. I am getting tired just thinking about it.
Have a wonderful Tuesday, everyone!

That's a nice adjustment Alfia, Christopher did that to me once and said, "open your heart." I think of that sometimes when I do the pose and it makes me smile!
