I get to the 6:30 am yoga class this morning. I turn in my card to check in and the teacher asks me how it’s going. I said pretty good but I feel like I lie around on my mat a lot. She asks if I have tried the Sweat, Stretch, Unwind class. “Yes, but… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 8

21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 7 – Two Yoga Classes in One Day
Today I am going to do 2 yoga classes. I missed one and it is really bugging me that I am on day 7 and it is my 6th yoga class. I want the alignment of being on day 7 and being on class 7. I start with a 6:30am class. I am still feeling… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 7 – Two Yoga Classes in One Day
21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 6
Today was the 6th day of my 21 days of yoga and my 5th class at Moksha Yoga. It was a class that was mostly done on the mat. I was super excited to get there and to lie on my mat and breathe. It just felt so good to get there after missing yesterday.… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 6
21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 5
Today was the hardest day of yoga of all. I didn’t make it to class. Or “to my mat” as the yoga people say (I think they say this, I am still a total newbie!). There were two times I could have possibly made it to yoga. Neither worked. As each one passed, I felt… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 5

I am excited about having an evening with her. She called yesterday and said she was free earlier and I could… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 4

21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 3
It is my third day of yoga. I can’t do the 6:30 am class because it is silent yoga and I am sure I am not yet ready for that. I still have no idea what I am doing or what the sequences are. I am going to try a 2pm class and will go… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 3
21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 2
I got really excited when I was doing some laundry and I saw a beach towel that isn’t too crazy that has about the right texture to use for yoga. I have a yoga towel! Woo hoo! I have packed a bag for yoga so I try showering after. I didn’t shower yesterday and I… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 2
21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 1
I have looked everything up on the internet. I am feeling nervous. Is my body too heavy, are my knees too weak? Will I wake up on time? I get up at 5:45 and get there by 6:15 for a 6:30 class. I rent myself a mat and 2 towels for $5 and pay for… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 1
The 21 Day Hot Yoga Challenge Begins
I have decided to do some yoga. A few years ago, I met the owner of a local hot yoga studio called Moksha Yoga, in Dundas, Ontario–about 5 minutes from my house. It stuck with me and I have been curious about it ever since. Recently I stopped working with the trainer I loved, and… Continue reading The 21 Day Hot Yoga Challenge Begins
