The more yoga I do, the deeper I go, the more places of stored tightness I find. It is like there is a bottomless pit of resistance.
When it comes time to relax and go to sleep these muscles flex subconsciously.
I will notice my neck and shoulders are rock hard.
It maybe my thoughts prior that urge them on, but I have to breathe and focus to get them to unfold and lay down.
It seems my 'natural' state is to be stiff and now I am working to relax and reprogram my body.
I look forward to day 146 of Bikram yoga and wonder how long it will take to be naturally relaxed.
Imagine having to work to become naturally relaxed!
