Early rise Day 2, Yoga Day 1

Today in my journey to self improvement I started my day with a glass of water, before coffee of course, then listened to a bit of my audio book of The Miracle Morning, which I highly recommend.  I then moved on to a hypnosis that I have been doing as meditation.

After that, feeling ready to add a new routine to my morning power hour I set my TV to Session 1 of the 30 Days of Yoga to a New You.  Well, I made it through about 15 minutes of the 24 minute session before deciding I was done.  I sure hope that in 30 days I can bend like that woman on the video.  Of course, I would have to lose a lot of my gut and ass and find my abs before that will happen too.  That is one of my goals.  However, I didn't know that on my first attempt at yoga, I would become nauseous.  Not good...not good at all.

So, now here I sit doing the next part of my morning routine, writing down my thoughts and feelings.  Maybe I should postpone my morning coffee until after my yoga session.  Maybe I should not try to put my head into my knees on the first attempt.  Maybe my body isn't supposed to bend like that pencil-shaped woman on the TV screen does.  Hmmm...all the things that went through my mind trying that yoga thing.  Oh, and let's not forget the plank.  Seriously?  On the first session you try to introduce me to plank?  Are you insane?  My idea of plank is laying flat on my belly, not standing on my toes and palms.  My plank probably looked more like one half of the McDonald's arches.  Maybe we should forget plank on the first session. Oh well, maybe some day my body will do that too...when I become a pencil.

Goal:  Become a pencil.
