Day 15: Class 14 & 15
Sunday, January 15, 2012 at 05:50PM PHEW! 15 classes in 15 days! Man, am I glad to be over this hump. 4 classes in the last 2 days was definitely the biggest challenge I think I will ever have to face. Given my mishap on Thursday and not being able to take class on Friday, I knew this weekend was going to be tough. I just felt movtivated by this challenge though. I did not want to get to Day 15 and be behind on a class. I am so happy to report that I did it! I made everything up and am right back on track.
I felt great at the 8am class this morning. I defiitely had energy and my body did not feel as tight as I had expected considering I had taken two classes in a row the day before. By the time 10:30am rolled around, I was tried. I got into class though knowing in 90 minutes I would have my 15th class under my belt. It was definite motivation. The standing series wasn't terrible but by the time I got to the floor, I wanted to die. I didn't want to move an inch from my savasana. I wanted to lie there and take a nap.
In the last few minutes I really started to lose my gusto but then Zach said in a very energetic tone, "just one more pose left." As soon as I heard that I pepped right up... just one more pose left? I can finish this!
Its 6pm right now and I am pretty tired but at the same time, I am also very proud of myself. Its time to rest my body until tomorrow at 6:45am. That sounds like it is going to come very fast.
My drink of choice today was Chocolate Almond Butter. I had it in between the two classes and it defintiely helped me through my practice.
Until tomorrow....
Jaime :)

We are proud of you, too, Jaime. So many times it is easy to let our obstacles become our excuses. When you ask yourself, "How can I make this happen anyway?" you find a way to do whatever it takes, which makes you a person to be reckoned with. You go, girl.
I didn't feel like I could reckon with much after 4 classes in 2 days! ha! My body was tired but now that I am on Day 18, that feels like a distant memory :)
