WoYoPracMo Day 8:I have a prize! I have a prize!

-Mont Blanc

This is NOT macrobiotics. It contain a lot of suger and cream, but simply the taste is great. I have been taking a sweet class at a cooking school. This is my recent work. Baking cakes is my favorite thing to do beside doing yoga. I am obviously addicted sweets. As I am getting interested in macrobiotics, I decide to take a macrobiotics sweet class at the academy from April.

I had a good practice this morning I had had a terrible low back pain two days ago. Today, it was much better, I was able to do all primary series. It was a joy! I also did backbends. I normally do backbends 6 times but today I did 8 times. When I finished 6, Matt asked me to do 2 more. Oh, no... I did somehow. As a result, my legs were shaking. Apparently, I need more strength of my lower body. After that, I did dropbacks with Matt. I hardly stood by myself, so Matt had all my weight. I felt sorry for him.

I have been trying to walk my hands or legs in backbends. But I am worndering if I should walk in legs or hands or both? And my prior goal for backbends is standing up without any support. To do that, how should I practice? But for now, I need to straighten my arms more and more. There are tons of questions.

I thought it would be rash to say focsing on backbeds since I am a "low table" backbender. But now I realize it's really good. I found some struggled backbenders. I am not the only one person who is suffering from backbends! I was encouraged during the practice.

I have just checked the forum. I got a prize! Yay!

WoYoPracMo Day 7: My Feb Intention & Macrobiotic Class Day 5

-Natto and Daikon whole wheat spaghetti
-Pumpkin and carrot soup
-Hijiki with vegs
-Apple and millet compote

It's already the 7th! I had intentions at the end of Jan. But I fail most of them. So I decided my intention is "focusing on backbend". Backbend is Nemesis, it's terrible. When I started Ashtanga yoga, I was not able to lift up my head from floor. It was torture, maybe it still is...

My backbend has been changing recently. So this month, before I go to AYC, I want to focus on my poor low table backbend.

It was the 2nd lecture class of the macrobiotic academy. It was about Yin and Yang. We studied the basic concept of Yin and Yang. It was interesting and fun. But I felt I missed something. Yes, no meal!!

So I cooked some dishes which I learned at the academy for dinner home. GOOD!

now I am

like him... can't wake up...
