Better than I thought

Today I had to teach 4 classes.  I was subbing for a couple of people and I was very nervous I would not make it through all 4.  At the end of the day what I realized is that this feat, for me, was quite easy.  I realized that at the end of the day the 65 year old woman who bravely decided to attend her first yoga class and felt her muscles stretch and shake for the first time in a long time - she had a much more challenging day - but I hope in the end it was much more satisfying.  I think many of us don't even realize the potential of these amazing bodies we have.  Many of us let self doubt get in the way.  What an incredible feeling it is when we realize we have gone beyond the boundaries of our thoughts and did the impossible.  Once we see that physical gain it is so much easier to challenge the mental ones.
