In some ways, mentally, I might as well be in...
Maybe. I feel too good to tell, I think. And in trying to explain this to you, I might come across as an idiot, but as I have experienced a strong rush of blood to the brain - - it's all good.
Today, I decided to work with handstand in yoga practice. And then, I went on into working with forearm balancing because I had so much fun with handstand. What if, I thought, while I'm propped up with this wall working with forearm balancing - - what if I just moved my right leg into position for half scorpion? Oh! Look. It's there! Okay, so what about moving that one back and trying the left? OH! Wow. Let's play with this some more! And then - - HEY! Let's try handstand again!!! Wheeeeeee! Came away from the wall, and played around with headstand.
When I do these things, something happens besides the rush of blood to my head that makes for a devil of a sense of relaxation: My shoulders wind up releasing a ton or so of tension. Those two things combine with, ohh, endorphins and such to make me feel a little high. It's nice. Usually, I'll work with one. But I did quite a few in a row, and that practice was a while ago. It's now 5.38pm. I've been out of the house, yes, and I have accomplished some things - - but not until after I realized I had been sitting and beaming since I came back from walking the dog a few hours earlier. I grinned like a lit-up, blissed-out freak while I was walking the dog. It was awesome. Trees! For real! Who knew?
Went to the grocery store. Stumbled upon kohlrabi! Oh, yeah. You know I bought some. And Brussels sprouts, too, along with beets, a few avocados, a cantaloupe, and a bag of chocolate eyeballs.
I'm going to have a nice warm, grounding, and very artfully arranged dinner. Putting it together is going to rock.
