Week two, day four.

Morning class with Emmy Cleaves. Just got out of the afternoon class with Jim Kallett.

Both classes were sweltering. I heard it was about 130 degrees today in there? I did my best and managed to stay on the mat. These classes have become my daily battles. Battling against the heat, against my body, and especially, against my mind. My practice may not have improved (in fact, I think teacher training is slowly ruining my practice), but my ability to breathe through these rough moments has gotten a little better. One thing I'm sure of, I am never going to complain about the heat in normal Bikram studios ever again. 

We finally finished Half Moon today. Wonder what Bikram will have in store for us for the rest of the week. 

Random quotes I found in my notebook today:

"HIDDEN FORCE LATENT POWER"

"Negative attitude is 9 times more powerful than positive attitude"

"The darkest place in the world is underneath the lamp"

"If I knew it was the third floor, I would not have jumped. I would have thrown her out the window!"

"Every baby in India matches secretary's face, driver's face, gardener's face..."

"You don't understand how much I love myself. The front mirror is for you. The side mirror is for me. So I can look at my hair, my triceps, my... I love looking at myself!"

"You're trying to turn on a Cadillac with a Toyota key"

"That's like making love but you forgot to remove the panties!"
