Stepping out of my Comfort Zone

After every class I leave with a deeper appreciation for yoga and its philosophy mainly because the class forces me to come out of my comfort zone and leave all my worries at the door. This is extremely hard for me to do because I am constantly thinking about what is coming next or what else I have to do before the day ends. Also, I’m not really one who likes to try new things or explore the unknown. That’s why my family makes fun of me when we go to certain restaurants because I will order the same entrée each time. Many would say that I am a very traditional person, while others might say that I am a bit predictable. However, I am slowly opening up and broadening my horizons because I have realized that life has so much to offer and we should take advantage of each opportunity.  Like Nolan said in his comment on my blog last week, yoga as a whole is a great practice that should be used to help all of us “achieve better wholeness”. In my case, taking yoga this semester has definitely put me on the right track to achieving such a goal and becoming a better person with each day God blesses me to live.
