Easter weekend is almost over, tomorrow we're all going back to work - business as usual. In the early afternoon we returned from a two day family visit. It was nice, I visited my parents, my two grandmothers and one of my several aunts with her family, and of course my boyfriend's family. So it really was a family weekend and I enjoyed it very much. There have been times when I found it a little bit stressful to visit relatives I don't see that often but this time was really nice.
My boyfriend's older sister and her husband recently started practicing Yoga and they always ask me to practice together. They don't visit classes but they practice according to a Hatha Yoga CD. Once I gave some kind of lesson for them, but this time I didn't feel like doing that again because I knew that my own practice would suffer - I am selfish I know. So I tried something different. We did sun salutations together then I went on with my usual Ashtanga practice and they went on practicing with their CD. Also some kind of Mysore style practice, everyone practiced according to its needs. And I was very surprised that it worked really really well. They practiced with the CD a sequence of fundamental asanas simply one after another without Vinyasas or things like that and I practiced the series until Baddha Konasana. Sometimes I said something corrective if something really caught my eyes but otherwise everyone did his/her practice. For me the practice was great, focus, breath, sweat everything was there and also the unique spirit of people practicing Yoga together.
And now I'm up for a small evening practice, hopefully a good finish of this weekend.
