I just got back from Level 1 with Baron Baptiste in Hawaii. Yes, yes, that sounds very glamorous. The reality is that I didn't see much of Hawaii and that instead I lived in (often soaking wet) yoga clothes, sharing a room with other yogis, practicing/growing (sometimes physically, sometimes emotionally) for 16 hours a day, running on 5 hours of sleep (without caffeine)... all inside of a big plastic yoga bubble (to keep the heat in). While that may sound like an edge in and of itself - add into the mix that my husband got injured while I was gone (and he was also out of town) and had to have major surgery without my support... and, I got sick as the cherry on top.
