Friday 23rd of January, 2009.

 I just finished Surya Namaskar, Virabhadrasana III balancing flow, and a flow based on Garuadasana.  I got quite warm too...

I am still working on the new flow.  The sequence seems to lack something, and I cant put my 'finger' on what it may be.  Perhaps if I add Virabhadrasana II into the mix, it might add the extra element.  A problem too is that I do not want the flow to be to long.

What I am looking for in this new flow, is a way to get a nice session of Yoga while I am on the traveling.  There are times when we have had to stay in 'hotels' where one would not want to touch the floor (often I am not able to take a mat with me.)   Taking this into account.  I only want to use asanam which do not involve touching the ground with my hands.

The asanam are:
1. Tadasana
2. Urdhva Hastasana
3. Utkatasana
4. Uttanasana I
5. Uttanasana II
6. Uttanasana I
7. Utkatasana
8. Urdhva Hastasana
9. Tadasana
10. Vrksasana
11. Garudasana
12. Virabhadrasana III
13. Tadasana

If anyone has any suggestions of what I might add.  Please let me know.

Pranayama.

I worked on Pranayama and meditation; which was followed by a 'sweet' Savasana I.

Thursday 22nd January, 2009.

06:35 Finished Surya Namaskar, Virabhadrasana III Balancing flow and a flow revolving around Garudasana. I feel very good! :)


I am working on a new flow that I can use while I am traveling. I would like to avoid prolonged touching of the ground with my hands during the flow.

This new flow revolves around Garudasana and Virabhadrasana III. It includes:

Tadasana, Urdhva Hastasana, Utkatasana, Uttanasana I, Uttanasana II (flat back), Vrksasana, Garudasana, Virabhadrasana III.

Wednesday 21st January, 2009.

A.M. Finished Surya Namaskar and Virabhadrasana 3 Balancing flow...


Yesterday afternoon I worked on standing asanam, arm balances and backbends.  I was a two thirds through my 'program' when I felt quite tired.  Generally this session takes me two hours + to get through, and I get through it with diffaculty.  Yesterday I just felt sappet.  I cut the session short and had a long Savasana 1.


Your body will tell you when to stop, if you are listening... :)
