The cedar bugs are invading my
house. A new flock of bird is
feasting on them. The Blue Jays
particularly like eating the
cedar bugs. It's the most
invasive bug in the region,
although they are so slow,
they've acclimated very well. 

Natarajasana, the dancer. It's
one of the name of Siva. I woke
up, practiced the small bridge,
got out of bed, practiced
natarajasana on both side. I am
working on my lower back. My hips
are tilted backward. It give my
body the shape that most middle
aged people have. Hips rolled
backward, the stomach protruding
forward, the head and the neck
moving forward to balance the
whole body.

I look like an old man.

Most importantly, this posture
tend to hurt the lower back,
fusing the lower vertebra. It's
also a bad alignment for boxing.
It blocks me from doing a good
rotation of the hips on each
movement, the punches or the
slips. Practicing Natarajasana
every day is a good start, but
the forward lunge would also be
essential. Maybe Surya Namaskar
could be a nice addition?

I'm reluctant to practice that
flow of yoga as it's so popular.

What is important though is what
is done off the mat. I've heard
that once, that what happen at
the gym isn't what's important,
since it's only the one hour per
few days. What happen outside the
gym is really what will change
your body.

Lets see how I can sustain that
practice.

I'm recording a series of meditation
on visualization starting this
morning, all that leading to the
pranayantra! Should be quite
interesting.
