Thanks to all those who replied to my message.

It's nice to know that people have experienced similar

issues, in different ways.<br><br>I guess what I mean by

a changing my lifestyle, is that what we eat and

drink also affect those we relate to - friends and

family - and the patterns of behaviour we have with

those we love - drinking alcohol, smoking cigaretts and

eating what's not a part of the yoga teaching.

<br><br>Also my job - which I left 6 months ago - didn't give

me room to live in a way to encourage my practice.

Of course, I understand that it was up to me to draw

the line (which I eventually did by leaving) but now

I am in the position to have to look for another

job (after 6 months!), I am finding it all

overwhelming. <br><br>The field of my work is in the 'creative'

world, and you don't leave your work at the office. You

go to parties, socialise, have dinners & drinks -

the basic networking scene. Before I used to work and

do what I can with my practice, but ever since I

stopped working, my husband has been pressuring me to do

the morning practice. <br><br>Anyhow, this is getting

a bit long, but just wanted to say thanks. I know

that it's all about practice and balance in your life,

and I will find it without making too much of a

drastic change.
