Guest guest Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 I am still only in primary but can tell you that at times, I come to the mat with many apprehensions about my practice and I do believe it has alot to do with where I am in my life. I also, at times, struggle through the practice to stay focused and have to force myself to concentrate totally on the breath. It is not until later that I truly feel the peace settle within me and my spirit and I am always so amazed at well I cope with things when I am practicing faithfully. Hang in there and know that it happens to everyone at some point. Ashtanga is the greatest, but we still have to deal with "life."
