這次課程第2首強調流瑜珈的 Down Dog（Downward-Facing Dog Pose/下犬式），不過很奇怪，有的台灣老師總是會說成「 Down Low」，錯得離譜。第3首的瑜珈Warrior勇士式的動作組合，實在是太棒了，棒到會腿軟，不過認真做是可以加強大腿肌力，很驚人。
每套課程總會有幾首歌觸動心弦，在那陣子反覆出現在腦海中，牽動情緒（例如：45套第2首-It's Amazing - Jem、第3首-Crack The Shutters - Snow Patrol）。如果我有記住歌詞，在做動作時，忍不住會分心跟著無聲吟唱。其實，這樣是不好的，應該把注意力專注在呼吸與動作的配合。
這次直到第9首里歐娜（Leona Lewis）的《Run》令我做扭轉時忍不住心情翻攪、一陣酸地想掉淚。直到最後的大休息時，還一直停留在這首歌的情緒中。這首是由英國歌唱選秀節目The X Factor第三季冠軍里歐娜比賽時重新翻唱Snow Patrol的動人情歌。
前陣子路過隨縁參觀紫竹林精舍，隨手翻閱一些尼姑寫的文章，大部份是分享修行的心得感想。其中，有一位尼眾寫到有時聽到出家前喜歡聽的音樂或啫好時，感覺很痛苦，因為那些事物會勾起當時的情感回憶－有快樂、甜美、痛苦、努力付出的一切，然而却因為現在出家修行，必需斷絕過往一切。回想起過去的這一切令她痛苦、有罪惡感，因為這代表她的修行定力還不夠。
天啊～只要出家前有過戀愛或心儀者的尼姑，聽到里歐娜（Leona Lewis）的《Run》，即使不懂英文歌詞，應該也很難會心如止水吧？
更何況～如果懂這首歌的歌詞時的感受...
Run－Leona Lewis里歐娜
I'll sing it one last time for you
Then we really have to go
you´ve been the only thing that´s right
In all I´ve done
And I can barely look at you
But every single time I do
I know we'll make it anywhere
Away from here
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can´t raise your voice to say
To think I might not see those eyes
Makes it so hard not to cry
And as we say our long goodbye
I nearly do
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can´t raise your voice to say
Light up, light up
As if you have a choice
Even if you cannot hear my voice
I'll be right beside you dear
Louder louder
And we'll run for our lives
I can hardly speak I understand
Why you can´t raise your voice to say
