Lazy

I give myself a sticker every-time I go to yoga. I don't care if it is juvenile... as the saying goes, 'it's the small things'. Well, it is partly that I like sticky things and partly that I have a bunch of stickers lying around that I don't want to throw away, but want to get rid of.

Looking back at my calendar, aside from my 30 day challenge.. I go to Bikram 3 times a week, sometimes more, rarely less. This is more than most people but so much less than the dedicated Bikram Yogi.. I think? How often do you go to class?

I AM lazy. I often use my hot yoga addiction to not climb the stairs, not try other forms of exercise, and my biggest vice... eat as much pizza (with preservative-free ranch) as I want. I work out in a 100+ degree room for 90 minutes three times a week (sometimes more) so I don't have to exert myself on any other occasion. This is my reasoning. Sure, I guess there is nothing 'wrong' with it, but it is limiting. I am limiting my potential. I need to work on this.

This post is not about belittling the enormous effort and amazing transformation I have experienced in making this yoga a part of my life. This post is about putting my finger on a problem and taking the next step.
