Adjusting to Life as a New Dad (and what it means for my practice)
I won’t say that any of us are sleeping thru the night yet, but things seem to be getting easier. Either that, or I’m just too delirious from the lack of sleep to know how tired I really am. But here’s the point, we are starting to find a way to piece in enough sleep to be functional human beings once again, and part of that is finding a way to get yoga back into the daily schedule.

Keeping US up never looked so sweet
Being faced with the lack of time, severe lack of sleep, and overall lack of energy has forced me to dig deep… REALLY DEEP! To find the memory of what I loved about a daily practice, why I did it before, and conjure up enough of that to get me thru a somewhat respectable asana practice. I have found that in order to make it work within the new guidelines it has to be fast, quick, and good (did I mention fast?). So 45 minutes of power, followed by light stretching, and a nap.. UH, ER… svasana that is.
I assume new father yogi’s do this all the time, am I right? What’s the trick? Then I look at this picture and all I want to do is snuggle up and cuddle the little pumpkin!
