Motivation plzzzz

I have a confession to make, I have not been disciplined and been getting lazy to practise my yoga. It's now only once or 2 times a week (whenever there are classes) as compared to previously, at least 4 times up to 5 times a week, with self practice. Yesterday, I had a choice between taking a nap, swim or yoga and I kept playing it in my mind "yoga, yoga, yoga" & practically dragged myself to the poolside, ready with my yoga mat. But the sun was scorching and the heat was unbearable. Went back up and changed to my swimsuit (well, I was eager to try out my new Victoria Secret's swimsuit). Swam 20 laps, or was it 10 laps??

Since I cut down on my practice, I notice that my indigestion is creeping back, I feel easily stressed out & some bulges are quitely but surely building up.

I kept asking myself, where is my passion, determination, discipline for yoga, where has it gone? Why am I being lazy? Why? Why? Can someone share with me how to put myself back to track?

Be Inspired!!!

I copied this picture from a friend's photo album, taken during an Anusara workshop. There were many awesome pictures of dynamic poses that I can only view with my jaw dropping and going wahhhhh, wahhhh, ouch, wahhhh.

But of all pictures, I thought that this is most inspiring as she is 9 months pregnant and she still continued her yoga practice and able to do that!!! Its just incredible that when you put your mind, heart and focus, anyone can do it. It seems she did a hand-stand too.

FAQ - JADE Mat

Please note that the mats I intend to fly in are the Jade HARMONY Professional mats which is 3/16" = 5mm, which is sufficiently thick. Unless otherwise requested, I could fly-in the TRAVEL mats 1/8"= 3.2mm or the FUSION 5/16" = 8mm.

Though the TRAVEL mats may seems too thin for some practitioners, my thoughts are that it is super-light weight and easy to carry around and if you find it too thin, you could always stack the Jade mat on top of the already provided yoga studio's mat. For those of you that may travel frequently due to work or even pleasure, you may find it convenient as it is light weight to bring it along during your trip (you could actually fold it instead of rolling and it doesn't take up much space in the suitcase or it fits nicely in a hand-luggage too). Can you imagine not doing yoga for days?

The FUSION mats would work out great for practitioners that practice as home (like myself) as its thicker therefore heavier to carry around but its a super cushioning for your back for those that does pilate or enjoy the extra thickness.
