When I was in labor, I kept thinking, "I will never complain about Standing Bow being a minute again." After I came back to yoga, I realized that I had to actually make good on my promise, so March 1st, I started a don't-fall-out-of-standing-bow contest with my sister (which I won, by the way). I made it fifteen months and one day. This morning...
I was taking Laura's class, feeling kind of yucky and tired and I just fell out. I picked up my foot right away and tried to believe it hadn't happened. I actually made myself call my sister right away after class to help myself believe it was true. Damn it! I had been thinking lately, "I wonder if I'll be able to make it through the first trimester without falling. I'll probably fall." I'm sure I set myself up for it. Well, starting all over. First trimester, morning sickness or not. I have the muscles to do it, I just need to maintain the will power. If I can do 10 hours of labor, I can do 10,000 one minute standing bows.
