i gots the wheel off the axel again

I have been avoiding my personal asana practice for about a week now and I am starting to feel the dukkha in my body build up. My bones feel little creekier, my muscles feel a little tighter, and although I am resting from practice to help heal an injured (or over used) shoulder, I am creating a lot of dukkha for myself by not staying active during this resting time (kind of an oxymoron, no?). During the 10 minute sit (on my living room chair) I focused on Les’s body decaying again and slowing turning into a pile of bones. I haven’t told her yet that I am doing this practice - I think it would freak her out, so for now it’s just between me and my good buddy, my breath.
