Motherhood & My Yoga


Lately it has seemed impossible to practice yoga with my daughter around. She has stolen my silence, stepped on my meditation time, and eaten my peace of mind. Motherhood steals so much from us, and it's so hard to be nice when someone is taking from you all the time. I use to send her off to school (4hrs) and would at least have that time to sit in silence, practice a Sun Salutation, or just free move on my mat. And now with are finances controlling our lives; Home school was created for my 4yr old. So now, I'm up making breakfast, teaching ABC's, reading books, fighting for nap time, and watching on my husband to get home, just to get 5 minutes alone on the porch. I love my daughter, she is the sunshine that I will never not need, but Mommie is missing her YOGA time alone. Not with cartoons in the background, and toys in my way of my Warrior. I need a balance in my life of Yoga & motherhood, and right now my daughter is winning. Save me Buddha, catch me before I fall. I need help to relieve the pull of my life & my duties.
