I got up at 6 am today for Lauries Flow Plus class. The breath actually played an interesting role in this class today. I have a tendency to look at physical activities, including yoga, as a challenge. I push myself into the harder positions and out of my comfort zone a lot, so in yoga I often find myself losing my breath and sacrificing it for the sake of a move. I caught myself doing this a few times during this class which was actually pretty nice because it made me more aware of my physical limits. I think it'll be good to carry over this awareness into later practices because that's kind of an essential point of yoga, awareness that is. It felt good going with my breath and within my limits when I caught myself doing the opposite.
