online yoga forum

I haven't done yoga since Friday and I'm going back today and I'm excited.

It's nice how when you stay away for a while, going back seems so exciting.

I think the same thing about sex sometimes - that when you go a while without it, it's so great doing it again that it was almost worth the wait!

how do you know if you're doing too much yoga?

how do you know if you're just going out of habit instead of really going because your heart wants to be there?

do we sometimes just go out of habit, like how we sometimes turn the TV on at home when we should just enjoy the quiet instead?

Yeh this is an interesting point. I know that I sometimes go coz I know I should rather than because I want to be there. But personally I think it's important to have some sort of routine (some could call is discipline) so that your practice becomes part of you. Then it becomes like second nature so there is no thought about 'go'/'don't go' you just do it!
