It is so important to constantly challenge ourselves physically. We are people wanting to influence each other and others we meet along the way.
This is where we can get workouts for the day, track your times, pr's, ask and reply to questions and comments.

This is also where we will share what events we are participating in and opening them up to the rest of the team to take part in.

Yoga... with Friends.

We stopped yoga about a year or so ago.
If I reflect back on life there has always come a time when I needed a break from something... and that was when we stopped doing yoga on our Rest day mornings. (aside from Britt & Des- they do it in their dining room) 

So: Time to Start it Back Up!!

Wed PM-
Power Yoga (this is what I love about yoga- the flow and that is power yoga- you are constantly at a hold and go mode)
You want to call yourself out on any kind of ego.  Take power yoga... It will knock you flat on your back.. because you 'think' you are so 'in shape' but your body will tell you different.
Our bodies don't lie to us.  Our minds do.
Our mind justifies things: diet, exercise, sleep, stress.
Everything can have the OK by our mind but it is our bodies that suffers.
Yoga helps your body and your mind have a conversation.  At first- they are screaming but eventually it becomes a soothing, refreshing, reflective, awareness that you gain by being able to listen to your mind and know it is telling you the truth about your body.  That is truly a beautiful conversation to have with yourself.

You know you have been missing something when you are unable to balance, your shoulders burn, your hips are heavy, you are missing the 'deepness' of your breath... you know you have lost the flexibility and the value of full capacity breathing that is necessary to provide balance to your body.

So.. Not that I am holding them accountable for much but these are those that have decided to hang out with me on Wednesday and Thursday evenings:
Power Yoga - Wed:  Kate! / Lisa
Hot Yoga - Thurs: Joni / Jennifer & Traci(maybe a Wed too? :)
Lets hope we can make it to Christmas together!

Super excited for this season! - If anyone has any interest in this or pass the word on to another... it is almost the season of giving (does that ever really end) SO we all know the best gift to give is the gift of good health.... Tarah flexes the session amount or drop ins are $10. (better deal to commit)
OH: Boys are welcome- most of the men do yoga at the hospital... since they are OLD and didn't decide to start yoga when they were younger to help in their aging process!  (JUST SAYIN)

Started this last night.... Crow Pose.  Will get it done by the time Jamaica roles around in February!
