Experiments,
Surya Namaskar
Today was the second day of the 30 day experiment of Surya Namaskar. I woke up without any signs of tiredness. I was expecting sore muscles but that did not happen. I had taken rest last afternoon to reduce the tiredness and that might have worked. One of the reasons for starting the 30 day Surya Namaskar on Saturday was I would get two days of rest in the weekend and that would give my body more chance to rest.
Today I was able to successfully complete the 21 sets in three batches. Till the second round it was easy but tiredness crept in the third set. I must say it took determination to finish the last 7 sets and was thrilled after I finished the routine.
I relaxed in Shavasana for a around 5 minutes and that cooled me down. It was followed by Sarvangasana (Shoulder stand pose) and then few forward bends and finally finishing with Bal Asansa 2. Shavasana relaxes all the muscles and Balasana 2 relaxes the nerves therefore these two should be included in the practice.
Yesterday I did not include other routine asanas in the practice apart from Sarvangasana , but today I included some of those poses and plan to gradually include most of them during the rest of the 30 days.
In the afternoon my limbs were tired but by the evening time most of that tiredness seems to have gone. I rested for half an hour in the afternoon. I feel major challenge would be tomorrow as tomorrow is not a holiday and the office resumes.
