Mellow Moonday Monday

Long time out of blogoshpere. Ladies holiday combined with a moon day resulted in 4 days without Mysore practice. I feel really rested now. I still did some yin yoga at home. In addition, my yesterday's vinyasa class kicked my own ass, so I do not feel like a slacker. But I am looking forward to tomorrow's practice.
Overall I feel very mellow for some reason. I have lots of things to to, but it does not bother me at all. SAMe at work? I like it!

I gave a whole bunch of SAMe to another moody ashtangi, cause even taking it with a full meal my stomach would hurt. After it woke me up in the middle of the night I figured it was time to give up the Source Naturals kind. I bought a small thing of Vitamin Shoppe brand. I'll test that out. If that doesn't work I'll give it up & try to accept the crazy person I become a week to ten days every cycle.

I feel mellow too. I'm not working tomorrow or the next day. Many, many days off this month. This means I have to spend less. I guess it's time to give up my private jet maybe. Still it's good...

I missed my hairy beastie teacher today but I hadn't had a rest day since LAST Monday. Needed one. I still look like shit though. Sigh.

Hi, Linda!
Missed you. Today is a moon day, right? Full right to rest. No guilt!
I think that SAMe works for me, because I did not have PMS this time. At all! Was quietly happy, all this time.
I am go to see what you have been up to. Mwah!

I don't have any guilt but I do MISS my practice. But then, yes, my body did need the rest. I should be happy that I didn't get the cold that seemed to affect 50% of the population last week & weekend.

The SAMe seems to help my mood, but waking up in the middle of the night w/ a stomach ache isn't good. I'll try the other brand & see.

Alfia, do you do the whole class with them? I'm not able to do that, I feel like I have to go around and adjust...

Susan, I do not do the whole class with the students. It has been ingrained in me from early on that the class cannot be my personal practice. However when I prepare class, I try the flows on myself, and to do that I also warm up with sun salutations. It ends up quite a substantial practice for me.

OK I get it, cool :)
I'm sure you are a great teacher, too.
