Well, I did it! The presentation didn't go exactly how I planned, but I have done worse. I brought note cards, and forgot to bring up my last note card which had my amazing ending on it. When I realized I didn't have the exact words in front of me, that when put together just completely tie everything together, I froze (of course). I think I recovered fine from that, I got through the basics of what the ending was supposed to be, but didn't execute it exactly how I had rehearsed. I think that my message got across to the audience and they really embraced and understood it. I wanted them to walk away from my presentation thinking about and realizing that this project is only temporary and that once you present, the stress you were experiencing will subside. I wanted them to realize that all the stress we experience in life regarding grades, assignments, and, of course, our futures, is only temporary.
Overall, this project has seriously helped me with my stress and anxiety issues. And, I know I talk about it a lot, but those were the main reasons behind why I chose yoga for my project. I wanted to do something that would not only benefit me mentally and emotionally, but also physically. I am happy to say that achieved all of that. I am more relaxed and laid back. I am not longer yelling and screaming at people over things that are out of my control. I am not longer staying up until all hours of the night working on assignments. So, I am very thankful that I was given this opportunity to try something new and experience something that I am planning on sticking with.
For my final blog post, I chose the sanskrit word atyanta, which means 'endless'. Although this IS the end of this project, this IS NOT the end of my experiences with yoga. Yoga has opened me up to a completely different world full of relaxation and peace.
Thank you all for following my blog over the past couple weeks. Maybe I'll keep updating yo guys with my advancements in yoga past this project. Stay calm, my friends. And remember, everything is temporary.
Namaste.
