30 DAYS OF YOGA

 Hey Everyone,


 I hope you all had an amazing weekend! Today,  I wanted to share my new found love for yoga. I am by no means a yogi and I barely know what I am doing to be honest. I have seen a ton of people posting about yoga and I decided I wanted to give it a try. I made it one of my new years resolutions but really had no idea where to start. I didn't want to show up at a class without having a clue what to do. So like with most things I turned to YouTube. I found a girl by the name of Yoga with Adriene (link below). She has a playlist on her channel called 30 days of yoga for beginning yoga. I have only been doing it for a little over a week but I love it so far. I even brought my yoga mat in my luggage when I went away for a night because I didn't want to miss a day (crazy right?).

Let me tell why I love it so much:

-It forces me to disconnect and take time for just me. With two kids, it can be really difficult to take any interrupted time for myself. Once I get the boys in bed, I get my mat and take 20 -30 min just to myself. While focusing on the moves and my breathing, I am not able to think about anything else. My mind gets much a needed (albeit short) mental vacation each day.

-It's actually a really good workout. Being into fitness, I always looked at yoga as easy and not enough of a challenge for me. Boy was I wrong, in some portions of the session I am sweating and my heart rate is through the roof. Don't let the relaxing mat fool you lol.

-In just a week, I can already see the difference in my core strength. The moves really work your core and force it to strengthen each time you do it. And really who doesnt want a stronger midsection.

If you are at all interested in trying it, this is a perfect way to do so. Just get a mat and turn on your computer and you can try it in the comfort of your own home.

Hope you guys have a fab Monday!
