Day 7

Liam is just under 10 months and he is sleeping for longer periods of time.  Needless to say sleep has not been plentiful the past two years.  Drinking coffee throughout the day to stay alert and awake had become the norm.  When I committed to the yoga challenge I also stopped drinking coffee.  I knew too much coffee was affecting my hydration as well as numerous other mental and bodily functions.  This morning while practicing I felt calmer and more relaxed in my postures.  A sense of confidence poured over me which translated into being able to still my eyes while going deeper into  my breathing.

Today was  day 7 for me.  I have practiced 7 days in a row and I am feeling different in many ways. I got a lot of rest this weekend and ate a lot of fruits and vegetables.  The consumption of water, fruits and vegetables and eliminating coffee is making a big impact on my strength level.
