As a follow up to my splits post, heres a tutorial to help your practice for your left and right splits and in general for increasing flexibility in your hips and leg muscles. 🤸♀️
Practice regularly and practice with care 💫
Coming up soon I will release the full video on youtube, so you can follow along with me. Happy stretching 💚💚
The key to hitting and keeping your splits is consistency. 👌 A little bit daily always works better than trying to train everything in one day. And remember to always warm up properly before attempting 💥
👽 I will show you my full warm up in the next video 👽

True strength comes when we work through our weaknesses... its easy to do what were already good at but we can’t make real progress without pushing our weak spots 🙌
Day 3 - Arm balances - Lolasana
Arm balances are definitely my biggest challenge but I’m getting there because practice makes progress 💪 You are stronger than you think ⚡️

⚡️Day 5 - Any animal that lives on land - Camel Pose (Ushtrasana)⚡️
I was a day behind, so you get two today 😜
Asana is defined in Patanjali Yoga Sutra as sthira sukham asanam, which can be translated as being stable, comfortable and happy in the pose, and I definitely feel that way in Camel Pose 💗 but I always notice I tend to hold my breathe in the pose ~ remember to breathe and bring awareness to the breathe during your asana practice ✌️

Do you feel stuck in your asana practice? Do you want to master challenging asanas like headstands, arm balances, back bends and balancing poses? 🤸♀️
For so many years I couldn’t excel past a certain point with more challenging asanas like arm balances and headstands. We all have are strengths and weaknesses. Flexibility has always been naturally easy for me. I’ve been doing splits and back bends my whole life with little effort, but performing asanas like headstand and arm balances REALLY had me STUCK. I wasn’t progressing and I couldn’t figure out why. I thought it was just me. 👀🤦♀️
What helped me move past this point? ✨Learning proper alignment, technique and strength training from experienced teachers✨
Even if your practicing a lot, but you’re not practicing the right technique it’s going to be very hard for you to move forward and it feels very discouraging. I always thought I could learn everything on my own, but when I finally decided to seek guidance from teachers my progress started immediately. I realized quickly that having someone teach you the HOW makes a world of difference. 🥀 And it’s such an amazing feeling when you can finally get it! 👁💪
So what can you do? First of all don’t give up! You need a teacher to show you the right steps to get to your goals. After you learn how to properly go into the pose and what strength training you can do to condition, you WILL be able to do it! 🦋
Do you want to master challenging asanas like headstands, arm balances, back bends and balancing poses? What are your goals and struggles? Let me know your struggles and goals in the comments or send me a PM and let’s talk about it. ⚡️✌️
Gentle & relaxing time for my body ✨🥀
Tomorrows class will be exploring the more gentle side of yoga 🧘♀️ after a vigorous last class and honestly a physically strenuous week for me working in the garden 🌱💪.
Taking the time to be gentle with myself and with life in general is something I’ve always struggled with, but I find yoga such a nice way to incorporate more gentle self care into life. I’m sure we can all use a little TLC. 🦄
After a more slow asana practice, we will finish with a nice long breathing technique to really get lost inside the universe of ourselves 👁😜. See you there ✌️

This Week in our Yoga Space 🤸♀️
Week of 04 April 2022
It’s the first week of April and the energy really feels more fiery 🔥. Not only is it getting warmer with more life outside we’re in Aries season ♈️ (a fire sign) and we just had a new moon in Aries. It’s really been a time to be more active in our lives about what we want and need⚡️. Don’t overthink things just get started! Now let’s take a look at what’s going on in our yoga space…🕉
✨Wrapping up last week✨
Last week we had a very nice sequence using different padmasana 🧘♀️ postures – more challenging than you might think! We also used pranayama to help balance ☯️ the right (pingala) and left (ida) side of your energy (nadis).
Did you know when your left nostril is blowing more strong you will feel more calm and receptive 👁 and when your right nostril is more strong you will feel more active and alert 💪. We can use different breathing techniques to manipulate the breath and change our active and receptive energy! Put your finger under your nose and breathe strong, which side is more powerful?
✨Coming up this week✨
We will be discussing the last quality of the five qualities of yogis – surrender🥀. The important but sometimes daunting task of letting go. You will also be guided through Bhramari pranayama, a simple but amazing mental relaxation. In asana class we will be practicing more advanced balancing techniques and working on strength and flexibility of the back.
⚡️Join me today at 9 AM US EST and 10 AM US EST or every Monday and Wednesday at 10 am US EST/5 PM Turkey on Zoom. If you’d like to try my class on your own time, let me know and I’ll send you one of my zoom recordings.
Namaste 🙏
Melissa
