Ashtanga Vinyasa Flow with eyes closed...

As usual, i do my short form Ashtanga Vinyasa flow (by David Swenson) this morning. However, my eyes was so tired for the past one week so i keep my eyes closed for the entire practise from Surya Namaskara A till Savasana, then meditation.

Wow! I would say, I feel my breath so intense, I feel myself so real....

I cannot balance in Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana A, cannot even stand on one leg when I close my eyes. I can feel my body is not physically balance left and right when I am in Sirsasana. With no choice, I need to feel my breath if I want to find my balance or my position on mat for the next Asana without straining my eyes. So, I have to breathe properly with the Ujjayi breathing in Ashtanga Yoga, it was so intense, yet so clear, the Pranayama. The entire practise took 2 hours, 45mins longer than my normal practise on the same short form.

May peace and love with all the blind people in these world.

OM Shanti.
