BIKRAM YOGA

OMG I had my first Bikram Yoga class and it was awesome.. I managed to do every pose however not quite perfect and got off balance a few times.. How fun!!!! and what a great teacher ! she was visiting from Chile however she looked from India, and she talked us through every posture and did such a good job!! I mean I have no one to compare her too but I felt like she guided us well and helped us achieve the best we could. I want to start blogging my progress in my total body transformation.. from the inside out..!!! I have started with eliminating the daily intake of a prescribed medicine I had been taking for over 10 years ! I knew a lot of changes would happen.. I started with gastric and digestive issues, abdominal pain..then I began homeopathic therapy for about a month with no changes...started gaining weight and having more issues.. The doc had me do complete blood work and we noticed elevated liver enzymes and other issues.. so I began on the 80% Raw food lifestyle and continued with my 1-2 mile jog 5 days a week, I then added Pilates classes. I had been Raw for 2 months with still no changes so my sister the nutritionist among many other things suggested I incorporate  the suggestions for blood type...with a B+ blood type I decided to start on this journey and now I have included Bikram to the mix.. I am excited and ready for a whole self strengthening from the inside out <3 I am trying everyday to be patient as my lovely clothes don't fit my body anymore.. But I am pulling it strong.. I did this ..I chose to embark on this journey and I will do it with health strength and love for myself and for the others around me that may see my change and that I may inspire them to love and nurture themselves as I am committed to doing myself <3 and thank you to all the love and support I receive every day <3

support

Sometimes all people need is some support..knowing they are loved, appreciated, and cared for. You don't have to have the answers...and sometimes the support is enough encouragment to help someone achieve the answers themselves...and feel naturally empowered...

and the situation changes..

magic 8 ball..?

I wish I had a magic 8 ball that I could use to tell me exactly what to do sometimes..so I wouldn't have to spare a single minute (which turns to several minutes ect..) thinking about something. What if? Should I ? Is it? Am I? ....but there is this voice that is almost faint as if my thoughts are a school hallway and every thought is a different classroom and down the long hallway in the very back is me, saying ..I know what to do ;) already

Yummy yum

I'm enjoying ACTIVIA con Ciruela Pasa (prunes) yogurt with sliced mango in a cup with some ALL-BRAN Plus sprinkled on top! :) Yay hehe. This morning is the 2nd morning of my new routine ;) yes, I said it, ROUTINE ;) hehe, I wake up at 6:50 just enough time to put my work out clothes on, rain jacket mexican cell in one pocket and US cell in the other with my headphones for music, brush my teeth, wash my face and meet Mario in the gym downstairs for 7, ok so yesterday and today I was late, but yesterday my alarm didnt go off cause my cell is set to the wrong time, and today I was just 5 min late ;) hehe, so we jog over to Condessa ( a very exquisite town in Mex City- more about that later) and begin our laps around this lovely walking/running biking path which circles the town.
