Day 17-19: Christmas is coming

The last few days have been tiring and lazy - it's a strange time of year.  You're exhausted and looking forward to two weeks off, but you're also aware that it's not going to be a very relaxing two weeks off!  And at the end of it all, you have to go back to work ready to face another year.

I am completely knackered, physically and emotionally.  I don't want any of my responsibilities!  I just want to veg out in front of the fire with some mince pies for two weeks and emerge with a renewed desire to plan 2015.  Christmas was so much easier when we were kids.

So I think it goes without saying that I haven't been totally dedicated to the yoga this week.  On Wednesday I wasn't feeling up to Strength and spent a large portion of the class sitting watching the pros do it.  It was fascinating actually and nice to see that they are actually human, although they are amazing at everything!  Thursday Yin was alright actually, I got through it despite it being very difficult.  Tonight, I did about half of Detox but again my heart wasn't really in it.

I'm looking forward to being off work from tomorrow but I still have a lot to do over the holidays.  Hopefully I will be able to use yoga as an escape from the excess food and Christmas TV whilst I'm not working!...
