Today I woke up, showered, and went to a free yoga class. I struggled a bit through it, my hands slipping on the mat, my back aching during some of the poses. But I made it through, then got a cappuccino and tofu green chile breakfast burrito. Struggling through yoga class was the last straw though... I caved and called to book myself a same-day massage appointment. My back has been hurting for nearly two months, due to my never-ending cough.
The beautiful moment for today is the moment when, maybe twenty or even thirty minutes into my massage, I felt myself completely relax. My breathing was even and my mind was slipping off into that pre-dreamland state. I think it would take at least three more massages before I could completely rid myself of the tension in my back, neck and shoulders, but this is a start.
