Inevitable happened - one thing led to the other, new workouts started to take all of my energy and naturally yoga bowed me the space. This practice is truly amazing. It's there when we need it.
I was watching Chris Voss's masterclass and he offered this fun easy exercise. Make fists with your finders. On your right hand, stick you thumb out; on the left - your index finder. Got it? Now switch. And switch again. What most of us feel is awkwardness and that's a natural emotion. What is important to remember is that if we stick with it, practice if you will - that feeling goes away. Isn't that something? My ukulele teacher is tirelessly trying to pass his strumming skills on me. At first it was a complete train rack - down-down-up-up-down-up, add a chuck, find the rhythm, pick it up, from the top. I felt like a little girl inside facing my old emotions of frustration and awkwardness, thinking I was hopeless. A month later I still have to silently follow the pattern in my head but I stay with the lesson, I follow through with the exercise even though more than anything I want to push the hang up button and be "comfortable" again.
