If anything, these consecutive days of practice are in a way, pushing me to redefine what my yoga practice is -- I mean if I cannot recognize that my life is in the midst of major transition with Beck -- and among other things, as much as I wanted every day of the challenge to be a hardcore, kick my ass kind of asana practice,I realize that if I get a few sun salutes in for the day - that will have to count.. . And it's a funny way to put it -- do just a few minutes count for my practice? Certainly my intention to get on my mat and fulfill my commitment to engage in the process counts -- but why is it so hard to value that effort as much as I value and crave a 2 hour deep and sweaty practice???

The question I keep asking myself is what really counts every day? MOre on this later -- have to go.
