monkey mind

The only thing keeping me running these days is yoga.

Holding a pose for 3 or 4 minutes is surprisingly tough; I find it much easier to grind through the sweaty warrior 2's and chatarunga's of a vinyasa class.
Yin yoga helps me shut off the monkey mind, swinging from thought to thought, rehashing grievances, worrying about what-not, solving nothing.
It ain't perfect but it's something.
This practice is one of my faves:


My agenda on this rainy Saturday: writing, thinking, and maybe a coconut-nog latte.
