We've had such a wonderful experience doing the 40 day challenge. It introduced us to a whole new batch of teachers, and Shawn and I have realized how lucky we've always been to have Zelinda, and how great it is to try new things with new teachers, too.
The best thing about having a great yoga teacher (as opposed to doing yoga alone or with a video) is that they can really tailor the class to the students' needs. Zelinda often says she watches us move for a a few breaths before she decides what to do for the class.
Today, I was sore. Stiff. Not really awake. We did a lot of work in the neck and shoulders and chest, and by the time I went to the chiropractor today, my neck would actually move in both directions. It's only moved one way since Monday last.
Sometimes you can't really articulate what you need. A great teacher like Zelinda or Angela or Stacey can really pinpoint what it is that your body is doing from the outside, which helps you figure it out from the inside.
That's kind of awesome.
