On the Sunday we had a meet & greet at the Bhakti yoga shala where the training would take place. Unfortunately that day I got sick, I think it was a combination of a few things, the snack food i ate from a stall at the side of the road, the most strong reflexology i've ever had & wouldn't be going back for, so so painful, or the overdosing on avocado juices!! So i spent the morning in bed, then went to the internet where i passed out at the computer & had to lie on the floor until i was able to stand! Then after all this i had arranged to move to a place near the studio. It was a struggle but i got myself upto my new home which was in the rice fields away from the tourist section of Ubud. I managed to get a mini house (see the pics) with a kitchen, outdoor shower, garden etc etc for less than i was paying for the month in Ubud! I would have been so happy had i not felt so rough. After more sleep I managed to make it to the meeting where I met all the people who would be on the course. Straight away everyone seemed really friendly, all girls except for 2 boys!
When i look back i think that every time i am super excited about something, it must be the anticipation or something that builds up & I end up getting sick. I think its my body telling me i need to calm down & rest!
Our schedule for the month would be 7am until 9pm with a 3 hour break at lunch time. Not too bad & there was a couple of days off in the middle! Also a yoga festival happening near Ubud called 'Bali Spirit festival' http://www.balispiritfestival.com/ a yogatastic festi! Hopefully i would get to assist Bridget as she was teaching at it!
To be continued....
