I’ve been spending these past few days in the apartment I mentioned in my last post. I’ve been studying, reading a lot about yoga and just relaxing and disconnecting from the world. I came back home today because I’ve got some errands to run tomorrow in the morning but after that I’l go back there at least until Thursday (The Girlfriend’s birthday).
I practised yoga there on Wednesday. I did Pilates on Thursday and Sunday. I would have practised yoga again today but:
- It’s New Moon
- I had a birthday party (had lots of fun)
On a different note, I finally ordered some of the books I had on my wishlist:
- Yoga Journal’s “Yoga as Medicine“
- “Yoga Posture Adjustments and Assisting” by Stephanie Pappas
- “Teaching Yoga: Exploring the Teacher-Student Relationship” by Donna Farhi
- “Instructing Hatha Yoga” by Kathy Lee Kappmeier
The first one is pretty new and the reviews sound good. I’m interested in the therapeutic use of yoga and that one looks like a reliable source of information. The other 3 books are all aimed at yoga teachers and, being a newbie, I’m sure they’ll come handy.
I also ordered the two books by A.G. Mohan:
-”Yoga Therapy“
-”Yoga for Body, Breath, and Mind“
They’ll be selling both of them here, during the teacher training but I just couldn’t wait until then. After all, the Mohans are going to be my teachers and I’d like to have some background. Can’t you tell I’m eager for the course to start?
