Samus Aran Posted March 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Battle Log: March 22nd 2016 Workout: NF Yoga Water Series A I'm not even a little bit flexible. This was made perfectly clear to me this morning. Thankfully, I had a wall next to me otherwise I would have fallen flat on my face. The warrior poses were the hardest for me. But I know I just need to keep at it. The reason I started doing yoga as well as body weight training is that a couple weeks ago. We had a band come into our club to play a set. The lead singer must've been in his mid to late 60's, but he was doing freakin' flips and handstands. My jaw dropped to the floor. I mean, come on, that's impressive for an old dude! So after the show, I went up to him and asked how he was able to do all these amazing moves, and he said one word. Yoga.

You'd think the first thought in my head would be how intense the workout was, but no. It was "Holy Sh** my floor is dirty". During meditation, I found it really hard to stop thinking. Seriously, It was damn stressful trying to not think of anything and just focus on my breathing.

Samus Aran Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Battle Log: March 29th 2016 Workout: Yoga Water Series A 10 minutes Meditation It was a little easier to do the yoga. I still can't hold the lunges for very long. But I expect to be able to do the entire workout correctly without stopping and curling in a heap of me in child's pose for a couple minutes by the end of next month (April). We'll see.

Samus Aran Posted March 31, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2016 Battle Log: March 31st 2016 Workout: Yoga Water Series B Followed by 10 Minutes of Meditation Water series B is Waaaaaaaaaayyy harder. I could barely do any of the poses. Especially that awkward one where your leg is behind your hip. Geez. Meditation was hard today. For some reason, I just couldn't turn my mind off and JUST concentrate on my breathing. Also! I've been training myself to lucid dream. Only started last night, but let's see if I make anything crazy happen. Like I have super powers and i'm Jennifer Lawrence's only hope for survival.

Maybe I just went into it with the wrong mindset. I worked kind of late last night and I got enough sleep. I think it's because of my schedule being off. Usually I go to bed around 1030 and am up bright and early ready to go! But last night, I went to bed at 1am and woke up at 930am. I felt groggy. Meditation wasn't any easier. I kept getting distracted. I'll keep trying. I'll find that peace eventually i'm sure of it. Also, I've been logging my dreams. They get weirder and weirder the more I retain.
