Day 2 was More Challenging than Day 1

     As excited as i am about getting back a regular practice, today was a difficult day. Without judgement, i acknowledge how out of shape my body has become in 4 months, Its like starting all over again. It reminds me of the first time i did yoga, im sore in places i forgot existed. I feel a real challenge of working through this and knowing where my body is at each day. Today i sat out on my mat for the last 10 minutes of class. Just wasnt feelin' it. Tomorrow will be a different day full of different challenges, same as the life we live. Thats what i love about yoga. I work so many issues out on the mat about my life with out even thinking about the actual issues!

     Posture #2 is Half Moon Pose, in sanskrit  Ardha-Chandrasana! Strengthens every muscle in the bodies core, especially in the abdomen. Flexes and strengthens the Latissmus dorsi, oblique, deltoid and trapezious muscles! It increases the flexibility of the spine, promotes proper kidney function. Also, helps to cure enlargement of the spleen and liver. Half moon also firms and trims the waistline, thighs, hips, abdomen and buttocks.

<3 Namaste!
