It's getting hot in here

I did it! I finally stopped making excuses and tried hot yoga! I love it. I spent my first class so impressed with what my body is capable of. It was seriously hot, but a good hot. I never felt dizzy or woozy. I felt calm and in control. And I could stretch and bend in ways I didn't think I could. And afterwards I felt amazing! I'm not going to lie, I was pretty proud of myself. Naturally I had to tell Jeff every single thing we did and assured him that although I can't do it as well at home, I rocked it in the heat. I signed up for 30 days unlimited classes, and although I've only done two classes (going to my third tonight) I can already tell it has a ripple effect. It makes me want to put only healthy foods into my body. It makes me want to breathe deeper all the time and come at things with a calmer approach. I am so excited for this adventure I've started with hot yoga. Jeff even said he would come try a class to see what it's all about! It makes me feel like some of the yoga poses I daydream about doing are actually plausible. Like with practice and focus I can do all those wicked poses I post on Pinterest. It also makes me feel more encouraged to try other types of yoga. I really owe a huge thanks to Meahgen and Jessyca who invited me time and time again even though I hemmed and hawed over actually going. And then when I decided to go they were right by my side encouraging me and reassuring me that I could, in fact do it.
