My Yoga Update

It has been 16 days since I started my yoga routine. So, how have I been doing with it? Not as well as I'd like unfortunately! To be honest, ahem, I have sloughed off the past week completely. I started off strong...and got myself up and "yogaing" every morning for the first few mornings. And it felt great! I stretched and stretched and felt really good. So...what was the problem? I would get too sleepy in the morning and stayed in bed. "A few more minutes" ended up being right up until I had to get my kids up in order to take my daughter to school. Funny how easy it is to forget about things that you promise yourself you would remember to do because it is FOR YOU...a good and healthy thing for YOU!

Anyway, I am going to start again tomorrow morning. Really. If I make this commitment a second time on my blog, hopefully I will be too embarassed to not follow through again, and I will stay true to my goal!

We shall see.

Yoga...Day 1

Yes...I did it! I started my morning yoga routine this morning. It actually felt great. I don't think I have really stretched mucles in my body quite like I did this morning. And I have to admit, my stretching was not easy for me...yikes...my body felt stiff and old! Now, I didn't get through it all, as I had to stop after each move and read about the next move and look at the pictures, but I still enjoyed the routine. Hopefully I will get used to the different moves quickly enough that I can do the whole routine without looking at the step by step directions. I am happy that I started this yoga stuff...now if I can make myself stick to it! My plan is every morning before I do Anything else...no kids, no work, nothing. We will see how day 2 goes tomorrow!
