It feels *this close*… and so I’ve been karanda-ing on Saturday. And for the past few afternoons. It’s great because I don’t need a warm up, but not so great because I am using the back room (carpet instead of the tile in the yoga room, which is tough on my knees) and the carpet is wearing a hole in my elbows.
Still, this is great fun. I’m not gonna lie: it’s all very “thinky” right now — my internal monolog is very busy with “Head up! Butt back! Curl! Uddiyana! Head forward! Oh, crap, I’m falllliiiiing….” I think I need to pull up more through my ribs to curl and stick the landing.
