Why am I talking about all this? To answer this question we need to go back in time.
After the germination of the 7th shell, the moment of stabilization came. Yes Yes exactly. As it turns out, it is not possible to create great magic from the very beginning. The load on the body was so great that it rested for about 1-2 months.
All because of my desire to get more goodies. You see, during the germination of my 7th shell, I gave it a "command" to grow both in depth and in breadth. Because of this, my mana channels covered all areas of my body. I feel that not all magicians have the same number of mana channels.
If you look at my mana channels from the outside, you will notice that there are main highways along which mana moves. And smaller ones come from them, they engage the "body parts" that are located near the main mana channels.
This would be the case with a normal awakening of the 7th shell. But I'm "special", I wanted more of everything. This is why I also have very small ones sprouting from "medium" mana channels. If you look at them, you will immediately notice that they are completely new. Not developed, small, fragile, threatening to break under any slight pressure.
I will still have a lot of trouble with them. And the first "trouble," so to speak, is stabilization. You see, as I said earlier, the very "germination" or "awakening", whichever is more convenient, of the 7th shell is stress for the body. And the formation of channels that were not planned, so to speak, by "nature," is doubly, if not triple, stress.
That's why it took me 2 months to stabilize. All this time, my new mana channels grew stronger, passing through both my mana and that from the environment. Arrived in "working" condition.
And all this time I did not train in magic, I only read books brought by Lord Black. Well, I also did yoga with my mother.
You see, giving birth to women puts a lot of stress on their bodies. Therefore, the body needs to be put in order, so Sarah started doing yoga for prevention. Well, it so happened that my mother still does yoga. And why?
But because your humble servant, from the moment he was able to move independently, began to do the same yoga. Well, how I started. At first it was just a comical parody. Not everything works out the first time.
It was even more comical to watch from the outside. Don't believe me? Just imagine for yourself.
Sarah's POV, a year after Calder was born...
So I passed after the birth of my son. A wonderful year. I can't count how many feelings and emotions Tom and I have experienced.
But one small problem came up. My figure. After giving birth, I was pretty bloated, but I was proud of my figure. The poet needed to do something. I don't want Calder to be ashamed of his mommy.
My first desire was to sign up for the gym. But then it was necessary to leave your son to someone else, which would entail a decrease in the time spent with him. But I don't want to leave my son to someone else. He is my son and I will raise him myself.
Because of this, I had to look for options for physical activity that did not require leaving the house. At first the choice fell on gymnastics, but after practicing for a while I realized that it was dumb.
After some time, my choice fell on yoga.
What did I know about her at that time? Well, the first is the origin - India. The second is something similar to the same gymnastics, but with differences. Well, that's all... I didn't know anything else. Only after a while I learned a lot of new things. For example, yoga is not only physical development. This is most likely harmony with oneself through physical activity.
From the very beginning, an irrational thought arose - why do I need harmony with myself, I am already in harmony. But after studying for about a week or two, I realized how deeply I was mistaken. After yoga classes I felt so light in my soul and body that no words could describe it. Moreover, in just a couple of months, changes in my figure became noticeable. The reason why I started doing yoga in the first place began to happen. This is simply wonderful.
Well, the most important plus is my son. And here he is.
As always, in complete silence with a serious face, he enters the living room. Together with him we begin to warm up. And then we proceed to the yoga itself. Everything comes easy for me, but not for Calder.
At the first attempt to sit in the lotus position, he simply fell onto his side with his whole body. It was so funny. Imagine a small child who, from time to time, with a serious face, falls to the side, then on his back, then face down. This is an incredible picture
But as always, Calder doesn't give up. Time after time he forces himself to sit in uncomfortable positions. He even tried to meditate. Honestly, from the very beginning I thought he wouldn't sit still. Well, where has it been seen that a child meditates? I myself cannot meditate normally, all I do is analyze the past day or make a plan for the coming one. And then I had to go to this for six months.
But look. My son did it. And he doesn't sleep. I checked. Calder was actually meditating. Amazing.
Well, enough memories, my son and I still have yoga classes ahead.
Let's go back to our GG...
Yes yoga. Brings back memories. My first failures, my anger over my uncontrollable body. But these were all minor drawbacks. And there were two advantages. But what kind?
The first is physical activity. Yes, minimal, but so necessary for my body. Plus, with the help of them, I was able to learn to control my body.
The second is meditation. Well, you must admit that if you entered the nursery and noticed a motionless sitting child who does not respond to external stimuli, this will at least alert you, and at maximum you will immediately take him to the doctor.
I have a legal excuse. I do yoga, meditate and get to know myself. Just perfect.
And finally, the most important thing I'm leading to by talking about heredity, predisposition, gifts, etc.... This is my gift - metamorphism.
I discovered it during yoga classes about a week after stabilization. Just sitting in a meditation pose, my banal hair began to bother me. At that time, they were already quite an industry and they all tried to get into my nostrils or eyes. This was very annoying.
Because of this, I simply wanted to shorten them. Well, you know the micro desire that comes literally for a couple of seconds. And it came true.
As soon as I wished, my body responded. The hair began to shrink to an acceptable length. Because of the realization of what had happened, I sat in prostration for a long time.
I have often had a question. Why are metamorphs in the world of GP so flawed? I have already talked about pink muscles. Imagine if they replaced all the muscles. Or for example the eyes. The best gas in the world, it seems, but it needs to be clarified, is from squid. These organs are so developed that they not only see more colors, but they also have no blind spot. Yes, yes, people have a blind spot in their vision, but squids do not have it. But that's not all. Their eyes can see in different spectrums. This is simply incredible.
And this is just the bare minimum of what came to my mind. But there are so many things. The main thing is to prepare for this, and only then act. I don't want to turn into some kind of unprecedented crap, do I? ...
