Finding a way out of the dark

This week I've felt like I was sinking deeper and deeper into a black hole of fear, anger and depression. The last couple of days I feel myself slowly working my way back out of that hole... one baby step at a time. I am learning that the power of the mind is staggering. That right intention leads to right thought and right action. I am reading about the eight limbs of yoga, and in addition to practicing and learning the physical postures, I am going to begin trying to understand and practice the spiritual and mental teachings in my daily life.


What I'm proud of today:
Smoothie: wild blueberries, banana, kale and blue-green algae
20 min elliptical
20 min upper body weights and core
body brushing and self-massage (ayurveda)
PM meditation: 10 minutes
