Day 8

So far, success!

Here is what I have noticed:
There were a few days where I felt I was taking hand/headstand purely to go through the motions. I'd be out the door and think to myself, "I won't want to do this when I get home, so I should just do it now." and flip up a few times. This is completely counterproductive. How am I supposed to relax, reflect, or just be, when I am rushing through it.

So, for my remaining days, I'm going to add on to my goal.  Each time I head/handstand, I plan to do so with some intention. This means consciously thinking about what and why am I performing this gesture to myself. I know why I run, why I get my hair done, indulge in expensive chocolate, or take long showers. This practice should have the same sense of purpose and meaning. That was the point of it all in the first place.
