21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 21 – I Finished My Challenge!

How did it end? I thought I would go to class today and I would stay in Shavasana but the instructor was so good, I ended up doing most of the class.

21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 16 – Shavasana, Shavasana, Shavasana…

I got to yoga this morning and I feel torn.  I want the peace and rest of spending some time in Shavasana and I also want a work-out.  I really like the teacher that is here and so I start the first downward dog and my wrist feel sore.  That seems to answer my question.… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 16 – Shavasana, Shavasana, Shavasana…
