Day Twenty-Four

The exam went well. There were 90 questions, and the final question was a full-page essay question (which, to me, seemed mostly opinion- and/or experience-based). The staff graded our exams during the day and returned them last night. I missed three points (two matching and one true/false) but I was pretty happy with my score.

We had our final posture clinic of the program yesterday. Hooray, hooray! For a special treat, as part of the integration process, our afternoon sadhana was a session of restorative yoga, led by one of our fantastic directors. The session was marvelous and really enabled me to see how the different yoga postures are incorporated into that specific genre of yoga. Likewise, I was able to learn the benefits (aside from simply resting and relaxing), so in many ways, it was a rewarding experience.

Last night we had a Practice Teach Three prep session. Today is our final Practice Teach of the program: leading an hour-long class. And guess what? I'm up first thing this morning (and happy to have landed the spot!). So deep breath in....and let it out...namaste, my friends :)
