So besides the benefits of increased flexibility and strength that I have gained from my yoga practice, probably the most significant influence that it has had in my life is the introduction of yogic thinking. My frame of mind is so clear and focused and positive now, that my life is just so much better. For instance, Friday morning i woke up to an e-mail from Bank of America saying that they put a hold on my credit card due to some suspicious charges. Sure enough, they were right. Last year, I would have freaked out upon receipt of this e-mail. But now, it just rolls off of me. Sunday night when i flew into Cleveland - plane was delayed of course, I got in at 11:00 PM. and then waited at the baggage claim for 20 minutes, but no baggage. So I had to go to NorthWest office and wait in line there and fill out the forms and everything. And it didn't really didn't faze me. not one bit. Once again, it just rolled right off of me. Everything will work itself out. and i was right. when i got home Monday after work, my luggage was waiting for me on my front porch :)
I haven't turned into some hippie who is all peace and love and whatnot, but I just feel that I have come into a better peace of mind and a better way of living. If you put out positive energy, the world is so much better. There are things you just can't control. And there's no sense in getting angry or agitated over it. So with yogic thinking, you just remain calm, put forth a positive energy, takes actions to remove the negative energy that's around you and let the world balance itself and yourself out :)

You've been smoking weed. Don't lie.
omg -- next you'll become a born again christian! this is really exciting. i love crazy people!
i think there's a big difference in feeling/living what you just said here and actually saying it. the difference is one makes you sane, the other makes you sound a little insane.
(unrelatedly, the 'word' i have to type to post this comment is 'maebz'! so you can have your yeses and your noes. but now you can have your maebz as well!)
like my new blogger icon? i want to lock you in my dungeon for 24 years!!!
whatever you guys. I'm sorry you feel the need to put me down. that's the exact type of negativity energy i am purging from my life. The more i purge, the thinner and the more beautiful i will become.
Lols, I wasn't putting you down. It just sounds like something that a dope smoker would say!
i wasn't trying to put you down either. i'm actually encouraging you to become insane, because the enjoyment i'll take away from your crazies will bring positive energies into my chakras!
i want you to get to the point where you don't say "i'm sorry you feel the need to put me down", but, "i feel sorry for you."!
my comment was made jokingly in regards to you BRE. To bro, it was more serious, because he has a tendency to be negative towards me for no reason.
Is "yogic" a real word?
