A return to shiva nata
I realized that I did not write a journal entry for today’s practice, so I’m writing this a bit after. I did Level 1 fast from the video and wow, I was flailing a lot. I didn’t ge tto squares because I could barely keep up with vertical arms with regular leg sequences.
It felt good to start up again. I had not done it with the video is such a long time. I had occasionally done it on my own (with many insights) but the video requires you to keep pace. When I do it alone, I will slow down to get it right.
I found a new shivanaut blog, which makes me happy. I’ll follow it, because I think I need more internet friends. I have been on the internet a long time, but I’ve never been terribly social on it. This blog will change that. I want to find other people like me around the world.
That’s really what the blog is about. It’s a way for my friends and family to keep up with me on my travels. But it’s also a way to connect with more and more people on a real level. A network of people can accomplish anything. And I’d like to bring a little more self-sufficiency and mindfulness to the world.

Hey renegade yogi- you do the legs too??? You are way ahead of me… happy to have found you too. If you are on twitter –search for shiva nata. You will find lots of us out there and we are really friendly!

Yes, thanks! I’m getting back into twitter, too. And I’m following you and lots of others.
I started back in May, plus I really think that Kung Fu helped. Easy to follow someone’s movements like a mirror. But not when it’s really fast. That’s where I need to be.
