Having to curtail my running entirely in anticipation of the race this weekend has made me one anxious person. Add on mounting projects and tasks and the tension runs even higher. Instead of allowing my mind to get away from me with all of the stress, I decided to take in an hour of yoga. Our instructor asked us to focus on one goal for the evening. Since I usually over-think yoga and leave more frustrated than when I arrived, I decided to focus on enjoying the movements rather than actively loathing their difficulty. As it turns out, this actually made the hour much more enjoyable and I left Black Swan more relaxed than I have been in months. I guess yoga isn't so bad after all.
