A Daily Practice (?)
by carl on May.18, 2009, under Yoga
Is it time for me to consider a daily yoga practice? Almost every teacher I respect believes in practicing yoga daily, and I’ve been practicing myself enough to realize the benefits of more practice. The key for me, I think, lies in Mike Matthews’ suggestion that one doesn’t have to start with the full Ashtanga primary series every day–just doing Suryra Namascarya is sufficient. Since it may not always be possible for me to make a full practice session, because of scheduling, I really think I should attempt to develop the habit, and now may be the right time.
More yoga notes: attended an excellent workshop this weekend, taught by Andrew Eppler. As always, his low-key style created an atmosphere where one could feel encouraged to try to exceed one’s previous capabilities. It’s also inspiring to connect with other serious practitioners. I got some good hints on rehabilitating my knee this weekend.
