It just feels better this way

I've been trying to write this post for a while. So I'm finally sitting down with possibly one of the best salads I've ever made to do it.

I've taken up bikram yoga. It's changing my life. I haven't felt this good in so. so. long. Finally, a way to let it go.

There's something about taking 90 minutes a day for.your.self. For your mind. Your body. Your health. Your emotional baggage. and to just let it all go. sweat it out. get it out. work through it. The toxins, the bad energy, the negative, the sad, the destructive, the struggle. Struggle through it, you just have to go through this. Then let it go. and be here now. enjoy this. Spend 90 minutes working hard, working on yourself, so after you can let it go and enjoy the world.

It's amazing. It's energizing. It's recharging. It's reminding. It's self loving. It's taking care of yourself. All of yourself.


It's something I can do for myself. And there's something about just that, that feels so damn good. Even when I'm tired and don't want to get out of bed. I know how good this feels.

You have to take care of yourself. If it makes you feel bad, don't go there. If it makes you feel good, go there. Make yourself feel good. You deserve it. Why wouldn't you?
We're supposed to feel this way.

One of my most favorite people in the world is a tall skinny Japanese woman named Kimiko. She's quiet and funny. She's strong and she's smart. And she once told me "take care of your shit."
