Just when I think my life can’t get any better, it gets better again. I just attended my first official Bikram yoga class. It was 90 minutes at 105 degrees, 50% humidity and a total of 26 postures. I can’t remember feeling more rejuvenated after a yoga class.
Yoga has made such a difference in my life and my recovery.
But more than that… I am experiencing more joy than I ever have. I find myself smiling for no reason. I like being with friends but I also like being home alone–to hear the silence and wrap myself inside it. Silence is a beautiful thing. I notice my brain is not whirling… it’s humming… or perhaps even purring.
This recovery thing… this yoga thing… this new life… it’s so much more than I could have imagined. I am very grateful tonight. And although I am alone… I don’t feel lonely. I have finally begun to enjoy my own company.
