Day 66

10:00 AM

Cravings... When I started on this journey I had all these cravings which were impossible for me to eliminate. I tried so many times and failed, just like most people do. Starting the journey, my main concern was if I was going to be able to eliminate my cravings. Sometimes I felt the whole challenge was towards that. It just seemed too hard, impossible to get rid of...
Day 66... I never even think about the cravings anymore. It has been like that for a long time, I really feel like I never had any of them to begin with. I think I didn't mention it in this blog for over month now?!? I won a few small battles at the beginning, then a big one, and after that it was all a walk in the park. It was that easy...
It is always that easy, everything is easy... You can do anything you want easy... But you have to have your mind set and your true self leading the way. Your attitude is everything. If you are determined, deep down determined, you can do it all. The road will be rocky, you will get bumped around, but on the end you will accomplish everything. Only if your attitude is right, if your mind is set... Only if, as they like to say it in my yoga studio, you have English Bulldog determination...

Good class today. I was extremely tired and sore before the class, but felt excellent after it. Posture by posture, my body was opening up, and my energy levels were rising. At the end of the class, there was no trace of the soreness or fatigue. The day itself started sleepy and tired, and by noon it became energized and alert... You just have to love yoga... I do... Even though I don't care about it, I love it...
It is a weird connection that I have with Yoga. I see that some people really care about it, they care about their postures, improvement, they ask questions on how to get better. I don't... The only time I would ask something is if I am in pain. I am not really interested in getting my postures perfect, improving the strength or flexibility. All I care for is the mind... And this is the main reason why, even though I don't care about yoga, I love it. It is a phenomenal mind practice, you get to see your mind, and his control over you, from all the angles. You really do learn a lot about yourself in that room... Your patience, inner strength, perseverance, determination, attitude, control, they all get tested for 90 minutes... Every day... What are you made of...? Go to Yoga and you will find out...
Like I said you don't have to really care about it, but you have to love it...
