Begin with bound hands behind back shoulder opener into stick, revolved ardha chandrasana half moon, cross bow balance. Finish with pike press handstand to scorpion. Home yoga practice by self motivated student, not yoga perfect.

Core exercises & stretches from morning practice, facing a new day- nauli kriya, bhekasana frog pose, out-of-control pincha mayurasana forearm balance, tittibasana firefly, handstand, backbend kickover. Home yoga practice not yoga perfect, choosing to forgo the traditional mat & further explore fivefingers.

socks as mini-extension aides to ease into eka pada raja pigeon pose, progressing to frog bhekasana- using block to prop self up to better “puff” the chest. Home yoga practice not yoga perfect. music: Ellis Paul, Vance Gilbert “Comes A Time”

Main morning practice this week, dynamic flow & stability test wearing socks to slide into splits easier. Feel many “stuck” places resistant to loosen up, what else is new in this body that feels foreign & aged +20 years overnight. The socks present some slipperiness issues that clues me to move with caution. Third of 3 sets practiced in sequence with minor apparel change of shorts between. Plenty of minor physical setbacks, lessons to grow on, yoga practice not perfect.
