Out of Sync/In Sync

in sync

• In tune, in agreement, in harmony, synchronized persons.

Yesterday I felt so out of sync, I didn't have a set plan for the day, it was super hot, ended up taking my kids to Griffith Park to ride the cute little train, and we sat in the front which was right behind the exhaust, mixed with the hot air - YUCK - no wonder my baby wasn't into it, see his face below.

 

The kids were extra rebellious, I caught a happy picture, but we were all definitely out of sync yesterday.  I had brought water for everybody, but usually use mine to wash the fruit and refill the kids bottles, when we got home I literally felt like I had to drop.  I was wondering what it could have been, I had a good breakfast and rested decently the night before.  I had to go teach a Yoga class, and before I started getting dressed I got the chills, which is weird because it is the hottest of summer everywhere.  Luckily I made it to class OK, was still a bit off, and then was thinking maybe it was the exhaust, and then it hit me:

DEHYDRATION

 

I remember when I was teaching a Pilate's class, I thought one of my students was still doing an exercise and when I got closer I realized she was having a seizure, we called 911, and they told her it was because she was dehydrated!  Also a few women that were pregnant had contractions begin because they were dehydrated, it is no joke my friends.  I also remember once at a fun weekly festival in the desert, which is actually about to begin this coming weekend in Black Rock City, Nevada, one of my friends got so dehydrated he passed out, luckily they had a medical tent and gave him fluids.

 

One of my clients who has her due date about a month away has been telling me she is experiencing contractions. She had gone to get checked out, everything looked great, they told her to make sure she is drinking.  We have been in touch all night monitoring the contractions, and we are so in sync, just evaluating all the blessings, reality, and trying not to compare to anything else.  I feel blessed that in my Yoga and Doula work, I deeply connect with my clients, and we open ourselves up to each other, trust, share, and exchange energy.

 

Also on a positive note our ceiling was fixed last week, and our genius friend conquered our hackers, I am writing this blog on my computer - Woo Hoo!

 

DRINK!
