Finding Time For Me

My daily routine was always very busy. I would wake up make breakfast for my family. Get the kids ready for school. Get myself ready for work.
After getting everyone out the door, I was then ready to begin my working day. I consider myself lucky to work from home. Even so, I never imagined that I could find any time for myself. My daily routine was really causing me stress. I needed to find something to help relieve it.
I walked into the living room to turn off the television and stopped to watch a short story about the health benefits of yoga. It got me thinking. Maybe yoga was the key to helping me cope with my daily stresses.
While on a walk I passed a local yoga studio, this time I went in and got a copy of their class schedule. I decided to try a class the next day. I loved it. It made me feel so good.
I was still unsure of how I could fit a class into my schedule so I decided to commit to one month of taking 3 classes per week. I took classes at different times of the day, gradually settling on a time that works best for me. 3 mornings a week, after I get my family out of the door, I head over to the studio. I find that by taking some time for me, I am able to give more time to all of my commitments. A regular yoga practice benefits every part of my life.
