Practice at the shala was good but my mind would not keep still. I kept thinking of the things I still need to do before I leave. I got in late so the room warm and packed by the time I started practice. There were a lot of new faces and faces I haven't seen in a long time. I normally practice at 7AM and leave the shala before 9AM so I'm not really familiar with the 9AM students. I hope I'll have a better practice tomorrow.
Today I decided to take time for myself. I've been running around all week doing errands, packing and putting stuff in storage and seeing friends before I leave. After practice today, I spent a couple of hours at the Beverly Hot Springs along Oxford and Beverly Blvd. I've heard about it from friends before and have always been curious. It's not as high end as I thought it would be but it was good enough. I got there around 10AM and spent the next two hours going from the mineral hot springs to the cold plunge to the lounging chair and back to the mineral hot springs. I think I past out in the lounging chair a couple of times. My sore muscles are thanking me now. It was really nice to just be still and not think of what still needed to be done. I'll worry about that tomorrow. Today was about just being still. I need more days like this.
