Great Weekend Kickoff

Wow, what a great evening practice I just returned from. That was the highlight of the day!
I got to bed very late yesterday so I slept one hour longer than usual and didn't manage to do any Yoga this morning. Despite (or perhaps because of) getting up later I was so tired all the day, I could only start working after one cup of coffee and two cups of Darjeeling. Then I got to know that my boyfriend has invited his friends for a poker night and I thought, well tonight is my Yoga time.
But since I was so tired I didn't want to motivate myself for practice. So I went to the only Yoga shala in my town which offers Ashtanga classes. It was a lead class and it was so great. I enjoyed very much practicing together with other people after a long time of practicing alone. I managed to switch off my mind and to simply surrender to the flow of the practice. Body was warm and soft, I had the feeling of reaping the fruits that were sown in the hard stiff morning practices. How my body feels in the evening really is a pleasure in contrary to the mornings. But ok, this is part of the work. And now I feel still tired but also full of energy, balanced and happy!
What I noticed this evening: When I practice alone I'm obviously Miss Super-Slow. In this class we had 90 minutes and we practiced almost full primary, we only skipped Kurmasanas, Garbha Pindasana and Setu Bandasana. When I practice alone I need one hour until Purvottanasana plus Sirsasana and Lotus postures! This must change. My practice needs definitly more speed. Now I have to get out of my sweat-soaked Yoga shirt and take a shower. Nice weekend to everybody!
