Props to Amma and Dalai Lama!
It’s been a long day. Meetings, crazy emails and frantic planning at work. I came home this afternoon and just collapsed. Then I ate fro yo and too much toast and chocolate-covered almonds. I went to the gym for the second time today (I CANNOT STOP THE TWO-A-DAYS…at least not while I am on these mega stress/toast kicks). I watched That 70′s Show, which still makes me laugh. I snapped at my husband. Crazy stress makes me crazy cranky. For some reason I am 29 years old with no good coping mechanisms for this kind of thing.
Amma is in D.C. So is the Dalai Lama. Every yoga class I’ve attended this week, the teacher has gone on and on about what a spiritual time this is in D.C. We should all be so happy! Hugs from Amma! Spiritual guidance from Dalai Lama! But it’s almost 100 degrees in D.C., I am cranky and tired, and I am not feeling the spiritual love here.
Then I accidentally found out that my favorite yoga teacher is back in D.C. after three months of traveling in India, and she’s teaching on Saturday! And my Saturday plans were already switched to Sunday, so I can go to the class!
So this is good! Not so spiritual, but hey, a good piece of news nonetheless! Thank you, Amma! Thank you, Dalai Lama! You two are clearly looking out for me.
I cannot wait to roll around on my pretty blue mat on the dirty studio floor five flights up from the street in Dupont Circle on Saturday. It will drive me all through tomorrow. That and all these raspberries in my fridge.
