I know for some of you it may seem like you've already been away from yoga for too long, and we have still a whole other week to get through before we start up again.
I want to encourage you to stay positive and remember how good you feel after practicing yoga. Remember that awesome calm but strangely energized feeling? The everything-is-fine feeling? Let the memory of that inspire you to try some yoga on your own. Remember how you felt good even the next day or even two days after? Let that inspire you to maybe try out a yoga studio.
I consider yoga as something I will do for the rest of my life... through thick and thin... with our without classes to go to. I hope you are coming to understand that your practice lives inside of you and not in Room 107 at Weber Center. So give a pose or two a try. Try some breathing techniques or a little meditation. Don't be scared... it's o.k. to find what happens when you're left to your own devices.
Here's Pixie with some mid-holiday inspiration poses for you. Enjoy!
Downward Dog...A Fan Favorite
Half Boat Pose...for the "Core"
Bound Angle Pose...The "I Ate Too Much But Still Want To Do A Yoga Pose" Pose
This is how Pixie will look if she keeps practicing well and with joy:
