Breathe in, breathe out. Marvel that my body can be moved and opened by breath, peer into the spaces that open up. Take in the firm calves of the guy to my left, send a little reassuring energy to the awkward newbie on my right. Remind myself that nobody's watching me ;) Lose my balance, fall over and giggle. Start again. Let the sky pull me higher as the earth tugs me down. Wonder at what i can do when i just ... stop thinking about it. Notice that this worked yesterday but not today, notice that my poor little foot is still injured after all these years. Recall suddenly, in a deep froggy squat, how once i believed i would never bend that leg again. Rumble deep and resonant beneath my diaphragm. Lie still in corpse pose, blood flowing through veins, settling beat of my heart. Alive, alive, alive. |
