PERSONAL: Yoga & Running

It's been over a month now.  I'm working out at my gym most days and the lost strength and flexibility is returning.  I find it astonishing that the aging body will respond so.

I have tried various classes, and find Pilates and yoga most challenging and effective.

What I've found is the psychological and spiritual component to fitness must not be lacking in whatever practice I use.


This is a chakra response poem/statement to use. I write them nearly every day I work out.  I also meditate on my chakras to discern which is powering me of needs attention.





I am.....in motion
I feel...forward
I do....choose
I love...the green world
I speak...of only kind things
I see....far far away
I understand...more than I wish to
I know....the dark

Sometimes during the workout I receive visions - of dark sanguine rivers, or emerald richness flowing over me, or out of me. Today I found a dark sky profoundly studded with stars.
