When you are strengthening your arms, legs or abs, you can see the muscles bulging as they grow. But when you are working on making your dahn jon stronger you do not always realize what is happening.
Take the superman pose. This is one of those poses that I would cringe when told to do it. I disliked it with a passion from the beginning. The first time I tried it, I think I was only able to lift one leg and one arm. Then I was able to lift my legs or my arms but not both at the same time. Then two legs and one arm. Eventually, I could get the legs and arms up, but not hold it. Then I shifted the classes I was taking and we were not doing this pose. Recently, our classes changed a bit and now I find that we are doing superman again. Guess what! I can do it and I do not mind it! I guess that shows that my dahn jon is getting stronger.
Congratulations Dinah! Thank you for sharing about your growth. Wherever your mind goes, your energy follows. When you are determined to achieve a certain goal, if you keep focusing, you can do it! You did a great job.
