Inner Roomie:DAY ONE

I dared myself to write every day in March, as my inner roomie and I climb into "the journey beyond oneself." (Read "The Untethered Soul" by Michael A. Singer.)
Listen to yourself: glibly written, wouldn't you say? Now, quite seriously, do you think you stand any chance of becoming "enlightened?"
Building a yogic practice? Feeling better about yourself?
Not being the moody, rather sad, lumpy brooding big Muppet you've seemed to become over the past eight or so years since you became a teacher of older adults and not a kid out there bashing your rage out on an electric guitar, singing like a voice was the key to the freedom door?
Going inside. Relaxing and Releasing. Shifting.... consciousness?
I am on a quest to understand "consciousness" which I think is about "being present."
"Be Here Now."
I am a caffeine freak who is a bit of a fattie. Yes, I confess, right here to my couch potato avoidism.
WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN OVER THE NEXT MONTH?
I have always associated taking care of myself as a sort of narcissism. But now I am on track.
My plan. Yoga or gym every day. Fat Blast diet. Read yoga books. Hold down my financial fort. Can these thigns be done? Can change occur?
Stay tuned.
I will be back tomorrow.
