Today, I did Bikram Yoga. It was my third class actually, but I'm a beginner and still need to learn how to do it correctly. There are so many yoga poses that are so hard to do, I often how I wouldn't be able to do a pose and giving up, but the instructor always encouraged me to try my best. He always said that "It's all in your mind" and kept reminding us to keep relaxed, focused and to breathe.
Even though it's so tiring, every time I leave the class it feels like I've thrown away the negativity inside of me. I feel relaxed and better. And somehow, my Bikram Yoga class reminds me of a story about a frog...
'A frog decided to reach the top of the tree. All frogs shouted: "It's impossible... it's impossible...", but the frog still reached the top. How? Because he was deaf and he thought everyone was encouraging him to teach the top.'
The moral of this story is to be deaf to negative thoughts if your aim is to reach the goal. Just like my instructor said: keep relaxed, focused and breathe!
