Sensitivity

So, this past week I took off teaching. It ended up being a week that I did a lot of self reflection, I added in a new evening practice to bring up those things which I might be burying and explored the direction that I'd like to head in in my life.

Did I figure anything out? Maybe, but nothing conclusive just yet, so I'm extending the practice until I do. I know what I want to do in general and I know what that entails but right now I'm ready to teach again and dig into life in a new way, whatever that means...lol.

What I have noticed is that more and more, the deeper I go into the yoga practice, yoga fully, not just asana, the more sensitive I become. I keep thinking I'm not sure if I can handle being even more sensitive than I already am, but I've discovered that I can and that its okay.

The thing the sensitive does is makes it feel like being in life is harder, oddly enough. Driving almost drives me insane with all the attention to have to give to everything around you and before I kind of just checked out and didn't think so much about it. Being around large groups of people is harder, but I still have other skills that can make that okay. Eating is harder because its a very specific thing what my body is needing and if I don't get it exactly right, then my stomach is rumbly. Etc, etc, etc...

I'm not trying to whine a lot, just putting it out there.

Just a quick entry to reboot my blogging. I'll hopefully be able to write more later, gotta go check if I have to cancel the park class because of this rain.

Have a great day!
