Rest day and much needed. I feel a lttle guilty for needing a rest day when I am on the most relaxed and cool vacation ever. But I really felt the effects of pushing my body over the past couple of weeks and so I took today off from the Ashtanga practice.
It is an interesting experience for me to 'take a day off". I am a little scared that by not practicing a day then maybe I'll lose my momentum, maybe the discipline will be gone. I am sure it isn't the case, but it was interesting to notice.
I took the day off from yoga but not from surfing. It was an amazing day. There was a swell so big that the local instructor wasn't sure I should go out. But we talked about it and decided I would give it a try. I am super glad I did, because the waves were awesome. I felt strong and good and free surfing the Costa Rican waves today.
I look forward to getting back on the mat tomorrow. I will sleep early and rise early for a deep long practice. Surfing isn't until 11am so I'll have plenty of time to give the practice my all.
