I officially started my yoga teacher training Monday night. I think this is just the perfect time and place for me to study the ancient art of clearing the mind in order to find your place in the universe. In preparation, I started fasting on Sunday morning, taking water only, and finally ended my fast tonight. I do feel sharper in the senses and more alert, and hopefully my body is purged of some built-up junk. I am about 10 pounds lighter than usual, thanks to my vegetarian diet and the recent fast. Hopefully I can maintain that with my daily yoga practice. It’s great to be learning again…
