Boy is this a lazy Saturday. I spent last Saturday at a fiction workshop for the nonprofit that I volunteer with (Girls Write Now), then had a songwriting “date” with the girl I mentor through the program, then went out to see my boyfriend (who is a drummer) play a show, and THEN went to meet up with a friend who was in town for the weekend!! No wonder it’s 1PM and I’m still in pajamas
Nothing wrong with a little laziness once in awhile!
I can’t explain how happy I am to be gym-free. I didn’t realize how much I’d internalized the “gym = fitness” complex that so many Americans seem to have. The times in my life that I’ve been the fittest are coincidentally when I WASN’T going to the gym…
I’m planning to go to a 5:15 PM Hatha yoga class down the street in a little bit. I love how tired I feel after a power yoga/vinyasa/bikram class, but really for me nothing beats the “slow burn” of holding poses in Hatha. This is the type of yoga I practiced every day while I was studying in India and I’ve grown to love it.
I’ll check back later!
