Day 5/Class 5

Somehow, today seemed so much easier. I think the room was a lot cooler than last night, there were fewer people there, and I was much calmer about the whole situation. I focused a lot on pulling up on my quadracept and really making my standing leg strong in all the standing postures. I think that made a big difference for my left knee, that was kinda hurting after class last night. It also made a HUGE difference in standing bow-pulling pose. I only fell out of the pose a couple of times through the two sets, unlike the dozen or so times I usually do.

Yesterday the library emailed me to let me know my book was in. I am eager to learn more about the theory behind Bikram yoga, so I am taking a look at the book Bikram Choudhry wrote about the practice.

In a non-yoga related note, my lovely sister is going to come and visit me up here in Boston in a couple of weeks! I can't wait to see her, and show her around my hood.
