This week I practiced Hatha yoga led by Lesley Fightmaster. It was very soothing in the beginning with all of the stretching positions she had me do. As the practice went on it became more difficult as we had to hold our bodies up with one arm at a time. This was a nice challenge to try to improve my yoga capabilities, but it was definitely not the hardest yoga I have ever done. I would rate it a seven out of ten.
The context of my pracice space was different than my usual place. It was at my house in northern Jersey instead of my school house that I rent. It was nice because it is more spacious, my dog was with me and it was much more quiet than my school house with 6 girls. The definition of a practice space is really anywhere where you can focus and practice yoga. It can be in nature, your home or a studio.
Connections made outside of the context of the practice space are typically made socially. Since I have been practicing at home and not with a whole class or a live instructor I have not made any connections. I was connected to the instructors we have had through zoom in our class, but not a strong enough connection that I would talk to them again. At home I made a connection with my dog, but I wouldn’t say it was yoga related.
