Day 158. Boy, am I stubborn! Or maybe Im stubbornly determined. I worked and worked and worked, literally, on todays handstands. And of course, lessons learned along the way. I left the studio after my evening class and realized I hadnt yet done a handstand. The parking lot was lit, so I gave it a go. After several minutes and numerous attempts I realized it was time to cut my losses. The location was a poor choice because of dim lighting (I dont see well in the dark, and without a focus point I cant balance on my hands), a rough gravelly surface that hurt my hands, and the whole parking lot was graded for drainage, so there was no level surface. Then I went to #heb to pick up some parmesan (making pesto tonight!) and thought Id do a handstand in their lovely garden center. Well, a couple of problems there... Despite the good lighting I still couldnt see well, then when it finally occurred to me to put on my glasses, my camera ran out of space and the video cut off. Then they needed to close the garden center. Lol. Finally went into the store, got my Parmesan, and searched around for a good handstand spot. I found this lovely open space, and with my glasses on I knocked out a strong handstand. For some reason I thought Id never handstand with glasses on. #neversaynever BTW, I share this story to let you know that the typical handstand video is just the #highlightreel after a whole lot of attempts, fails, and sometimes sweat and tears. And maybe some cuss words. #handstand365 #rryogaroom #yogaforeverybody #lessonsfromthemat #roundrocktx
