i also find that i am sleepy throughout the day (sitting in front of

a computer) and sluggish before going to practice, but once i start

i'm full of energy and feel great. i would also like to get rid of

the sluggish feeling that i feel throughout the day (especially on my

4th or 5th day of practice in row). my knees also start to bother me

on my 4th or 5th day of practice. is it because i need to build up my

endurance somehow?

I have the same problem; I'm tired and rather unmotivated before I practise,

but, usually, once I get into the asanas I feel entirely better. Sometimes

I'll show people at work different poses [if we're bored] and afterward I'm

slightly energized. Perhaps you could do one or two during the day when

you're feeling sluggish to help? For your knees... it could be endurance,

but it could also be something about how your built. If it persists, I'd

see a doctor about it just to rule anything medical out :o)

 

Namaste,

Joie~

traditionally, people are more tired in the evening, that is why it

is encouraged to practice in the morning. you have much more energy

and better concentration. obviously, it is harder to practice in the

AM for most people, but you will notice the difference. I used to

practice at night and now I practice in the AM. I find that I have a

lot more energy during the day from my morning practice and my energy

is balanced. If you can try to do some morning practices, i would

encourage you thoroughly. I am not a morning person, so I know how

hard it is.
