It has been a long time since I have blogged and I wondered why.
For those of you that have never done Bikram, I encourage you to give it a try, especially if you are a type "A" personality. During my very hard time last year my dr prescribed Xanax and Ambien for me to get through. Now I hardly ever used the Xanax. I am afraid of it. I have seen someone addicted to Xanax so it scares me HOWEVER I did use it a few times. The reason I mention it is that one Bikram class is the equivalent in anxiety relief for me to one Xanax. Also when I go to Bikram classes I would generally not need to take Ambien to sleep at night.
Between my Bikram classes and at night I dove into Committed. Great book. Thank you Elizabeth Gilbert for putting into words what I feel and making me feel that I am OK to experience this. What is staring me in the face is that I have not come to terms with my marriage. I don't even know what marriage means any more yet I have a burning desire to be married. ? What the hell? WHY?
So here I am with a knot the size of my imagination in my chest. I am dealing with a terrible fear that I will talk about soon and the fear changes depending on my desire to focus on the fear (it increases) or to focus on creating more positive things (it decreases). I know that I have three things that I am supposed to use right now, 1. my writing 2. Bikram yoga and 3. introspection from the book Committed. I have one of those feelings that I am starting on a journey. I guess that because I have all the sinking feelings that you get when you are afraid to take the road beneath your feet.
