Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 i too, went through this around august of last year, and i am just now getting out of my slump. i have also been practicing for 2 years. i spoke with my teacher at length about this. it has been an emotional time for me. i think that there was a fear hidden somewhere inside. i think i was afraid that deep inside i didn't want to practice. that was scary and i was beating myself up over it. and i finally came to peace about it and by letting go i now enjoy my practice again and actually want to practice. it was as if a huge rock was lifted off my back. i hope that helps you. >I have been practicing yoga (ashtanga) for two years and, as most of >you have probably experienced, it has changed my life in so many >ways.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2004 Report Share Posted January 28, 2004 I can totally relate to that, which is why I've stop putting pressure on myself to practice. I just know how good I feel when I do... which is why I wish Ih ad a little more internal motivation. Maybe you're right, it's a fear of sorts. It has been an emotional time for me as well. Thanks for your reply.
