Setting Intentions
March 2023 Slice of Life challenge
I had an epic fall in yoga class the other day. It was so epic that the entire class of students experienced it. I went up into a headstand at the head of my mat. This is a pose I often practice with ease. I don’t know why or how but I lost complete control. I fell backwards into the corner of the room. There was a huge thud as my flopping legs hit the mirror. I then proceeded to land on the small end table knocking the lamp and my glasses to the floor. I promptly notified the class, “I’m okay, I’m okay. I’m not sure about my glasses though. (A bit of a pause) Okay, you all can proceed.” It was a clear disruption and my attempt at humor didn’t receive any laughs. Luckily, I wasn’t hurt. I was able to continue with class without any issue. The bruises can always appear a few hours later and I will be reminded of my headstand blunder when it is something I’d like to forget.

I hope you did not bruise too badly. At least you were doing something cool when you fell. I fall pretty often, I am just clumsy. I am never doing anything cool when it happens. My college cross country team had an award names after me for the person who fell the most times in the season...
