progress

i've been very brave and sort of a wimp at the same time with the whole handstand thing...but i think i've finally reached a point where i'm a little more comfortable in practicing it.

here's todays progress with handstand and scorpion:

[these poses make me feel much stronger than i actually am]


i can't stress enough that yoga is something you can do anywhere at anytime...so more often than not im randomly busting out a move while walking to my room in the halls- you never know when you'll feel strong enough to make some progress.

i usually do yoga in the mornings (if i'm not working crack of dawn) with the stretchy pants but rest of the day i like to do the fun ones in random places no matter what i'm wearing. then i usually wind down my night with some light stretching before getting in to bed at an appropriate time of course.


^^ i remember watching this handstand video by tara stiles few years ago now and mannn such an inspiration. also very appropriate and catchy song.

what poses are you relentlessly practicing? let me know!

happy yoga-ing!

yoga outdoors

i've enjoyed some yoga sessions outdoors these past few days with some sun & my little muffin.

there's something about moving very very slowly and breathing very very deeply

i've made a lot of progress on the scorpion it's kind of insane how fast you can achieve a pose with some practice and i don't even practice crazy poses on a daily basis but sometimes it's fun!

lately every.single.time i close my eyes i daydream of inversions, just throwin my feet up into a handstand like it's nothing and sometimes my mind won't stop i literally have to get up and try it.

if it wasn't fun i wouldn't do it!
