Yoga eluded me last year. This year I need to make time for it – even if it’s just 20 minutes.
Today, I’m going to try a video that I found at http://www.doyogawithme.com/. In the next 30 days, it will be interesting to see if Yoga has been helpful to me at all. I would also like to try several different online classes to see what works and what doesn’t. This was my goal last year. Apparently, I wasn’t ready to get in shape or give up junk food.
Along with Yoga, I’m also trying to eat less junk food and drink more water. I may not be able to give up ice cream totally but a little here and there should be fine. Everything in moderation, right?
So I’m going to try and take a break in the afternoon and try out some new Yoga videos.
I tried this video out today. It was pretty good. The instructor was pleasant. I didn’t feel like punching her in the face at all, so that’s an improvement over past workout videos. I also felt like I worked muscles that are underworked. All in all it was a good time for the first day of the Yoga challenge.

Awesome. This is something I’ve been thinking about doing for a while. Tried pilates, thought I might give yoga a try too 🙂

Love yoga, but I need to get back on the bandwagon too. It’s been a couple of years. One small step at a time, right?

Yes. Exactly!! 🙂 20 minutes a day is better than 0 minutes.

Right? 🙂

Any yoga teacher you don’t feel like punching in the throat is a good teacher!! I’m working on deepening my yoga practice this year – so we’ll be yoga buddies!

LOL! I have been a slacker lately myself. I have been doing 10 little yoga poses for years. They just help keep me lose and flexible, and are supposed to help with my core a bit, but I think hiking with a backpack has done more for me there.
I hope you aren’t too sore tomorrow! You’ll be surprised at how sore yoga can make your muscles.
I wish you all the best with your new workout, and yoga progression!

Thanks! I hope not either. 🙂
