Obstacles & Distractions

It's been quite interesting to watch my mind as I have experienced a large amount of obstacles and distractions the past few weeks. Since living in Asheville (almost a year now) I have had a very consistent, with very small ups and downs, practice that has allowed me to personally experience a lot of the benefits of an asana and meditation practice.

The recent set of distractions/obstacles have been the biggest challenge to my practice since moving here and I look forward to regaining the momentum and daily benefits I was experiencing before.

On July 1st I joined Michael Johnson's 365 yoga/meditation challenge. (So I'm on day 6.) It is certainly a lofty goal but the benefits that come from working towards such an accomplishment are well worth it. I will get back on track when it comes to blogging my experience as well.

So this blog post is more of an outward voice committing to getting back on my asana/meditation feet with a modest, consistent, and growing practice.
