I was at yoga last night for the first time in a few weeks.I was a little worried that I would struggle with it since it has been almost a month since I was there.
At one point we were standing with our arms up for almost 2 minutes. 30 seconds in my shoulders started to scream "ABORT, ABORT, are you crazy we can't do this". I was just about to put my arms down when something clicked inside of me...
I started thinking of all the pain and craziness DH and I have been through over the last year. Sure it was painful at the time but I got over it right?? So what was a few minutes of pain in a yoga class, I can do it!!! Sure enough I made it through that set, and the next one and the next one, each one more challenging, and each one I laughed in the face of pain, stayed strong and made it through!!!
I found my inner strengh again!!!
This whole infertility thing had stolen my inner strength, I was just finding it way to hard to stay positive any more.
Last night I got more then a work out at my yoga class, I got a little piece of myself back again!!
