My First day Back to my Practice!

     This was one of the most challenging classes i have ever taken. Reason being, i am completely out of shape, i have gained 17 lbs and my Body is a little jacked. All & All, i feel completely inspired and have missed this practice in my life! I am really excited for the days to come. I know the more i practice, the easier it becomes (physically). Mentally, it is a daily challenge depending on what is going on in my life. Again, this practice can only make me stronger and get me in touch with my center. Class #2 tomorrow morning!

    1. Pranayama.  As i i continue my Yoga journey, i will learn the Sanskrit names of all 26 postures and describe their benefits. Today is the first posture and the most important, Standing Deep Breathing...Pranayama... This Breathing Technique relaxes the body and the mind. It prepares you for the practice. It has many health benefits. Helps with shortness of breath, helps with asthma and is a huge stress reliever. Develops a steady mind, strong will power and good judgement. It isnt yoga without the breath! Namaste!
