(Cantonese on the bottom • 廣東話喺下面) Really didn’t want to practice today. Sudden super low energy so I took a nap instead after sound healing. An unexpected long one too. But then my “battery” was recharged after the snooze. Woke up, checked IG and got really inspired by the practices of fellow yoga practitioners so I thought “fine. I’ll just do surya namaskar”……after those were done I thought “ok, I’ll do standing”………”ok, I’ll end at kapotasana”…….and before I knew it I was at karadavasana…..didn’t jump back during pincha because I didn’t want to scare my sleeping doggos with the thud and definitely didn’t have the energy to go back up to pincha after duck pose but it’s fine. It’s more than fine. And I felt really good afterwards. Some people ask me why I always post on social media, it’s because on days when I felt yucky, it’s these posts that give me a good kick in the butt. So I hope that, hey, perhaps my posts could give people a little boost too. 其實今日冇諗過練。因為突然個energy超低。做完sound healing就瞓咗一陣…….嗰一陣都幾耐😅 瞓完就覺得charge完舊電，咁就碌吓IG,見到有啲人練得好靚。咁就同自己講郁下啦。心諗 「練完5A3B就算啦！」點知眨吓眼就過咗 「咁練到standing囉」….「做到kapo啦！」點知唔覺唔覺做到half. Pincha冇彈返向後因為怕嘈醒狗狗，咁當然karandavasana 唔夠力上番嚟啦。直頭試都唔諗住試。但ok啦。 係超ok因為之後我感覺很好。有人問點解我咁勤力po嘢。其實係因為social media令到我多番力量去繼續行。咁我都希望用我嘅小小力同大家打打氣。

(Cantonese on the bottom • 廣東話喺下面) Have you ever been in a yoga shape with so much concentration for a long enough time that you entered a trance? Yes I did. The crow pose. Lol. That’s right. It was last year, i did a crazy training where i had to stay in bakasana for an insane amount of time…..i think i was trying to hit the 2-min mark. I don’t know. I thought it was fun to try. And when i was almost there, because i was really engaging my entire body so much [and i did dozens of handstands before that] that i actually went into a trance. And it was such a surreal experience. Like it was so intense that it felt effortless. And i swear i could actually see unicorn galloping around me. Yeah, just thought i would share something that’s really…..exceptional. 你有冇試過用好多力又好專注做一個瑜伽式子做到出咗竅？我有. 我真係有. 係做烏鴉式. 舊年上咗個痴線嘅訓練要hold烏鴉式hold好鬼耐。 我諗我好似係想hold 兩分鐘. 其實嗰一刻純粹係覺得好玩. 當差唔多到, 因為我成個人真係la到實晒, (再加上之前做咗唔知幾多打手倒立), 我堅出咗竅。係一個極超現實嘅體驗. 係激到個位覺鬼唔使用力. 同埋見到anson lo喺我隔離唱burn out (mmm….其實, 嗰陣時我係唔鍾意佢嘅. 我都未係鏡粉. Anyways) 係囉. 冇呀, 只係想分享下一啲咁異常嘅啫

(Cantonese on the bottom • 廣東話喺下面) Never knew the lower back injury more than a decade ago would cause so much trauma to my system that i blocked my lower back completely. Now whenever i do backbends, i use my upper back instead. And whenever i feel a slight tension in my lower back, i would freak out and refuse to go any further. But a lot of times, it’s just the feeling of a stiff lower back being released. I was told by my teacher that if my lower back was more flexible, my physical practice would be better by 30%. I really want to reconnect with my lower back. Of course the 30% is very tempting, but more so, it’s the relationship between my mind and body. I don’t want to think my lower back as a hindrance, I want to be friends with my lower back. What about you? Do you have a body part that you have an awkward relationship with? 從來冇諗過十幾年前嘅下腰受傷會令到成個人block out咗條腰。 而家一做後彎就會用上背， 而一感覺到腰有些少感覺就會縮，點都唔肯再去深啲。但其實好多時其實只不過係張腰緊嘅感覺釋放咗出。我老師話如果我條腰鬆啲我個練習會好多30%. 我真你好想同我條腰reconnect番。 當然30%呢樣嘢係好吸引但更加嘅係個腦同個身體嘅關係。我唔想覺得我條腰係個阻礙，我唔想唔鍾意我條腰。 咁你呢？你有冇同你身體某一part 有個好矛盾嘅關係呀?
