Question: If you have never tried yoga.....why?

P.m. me or answer below...help me out!

Yoga & your metabolism********

In addition to yoga’s well-documented methods of promoting health and happiness. it also has the ability to help you lose weight, burn calories, boost metabolism and reduce stress. yoga can be an excellent long-term tool for losing weight and keeping it off!

Metabolism consists of the chemical processes that create energy in the body that are regulated by the endocrine system, especially the thyroid. Yoga has a powerful stimulating and strengthening effect on the endocrine organs and thus can boost metabolism to burn more calories. Twisting and compressing yoga postures massage the endocrine and abdominal organs, regulating their function, improving local circulation and cleansing them of old stagnant toxins.

Did you know?????yoga asanas will tone the body, but they are more than just a way to lose weight as they concentrate on deeper aspects of effectively functioning muscle groups. “Strong toned muscles at the core of your body support good health over all!

Meet my new yoga side kick everyone! It's going to be a task to teach him this is chill time at 4 months, but we are going to try ....
I hope everyone that can is doing their part and staying home for the next 14 days.. I am going to try and do a 14 day yoga challenge and include my side kick. Hope fully by the end he will understand it's yoga time when he sees the mat. Anyone want to do this with me?????
Today was about remembering "what you focus on your energy goes to..." What do you want to give your energy away to??!!

Hi everyone,
Funny how sometimes we get just what we need. The program I have been following was all about balance today. Today's thought. " I'm not trying to create balance, I'm trying to return to it, it's my natural state. " I read that our journey on our mat is not a journey to become a different person, rather a journey that takes us back to ourself, our true self!
I like that thought. We create space for our true self to shine through. Hope you all make the time for yourself today. Even if it's just a quiet 5 minutes to breath and quiet the mind. :)

Hi everyone, I have been making it to the mat but struggling to be in the moment. Today was better. Balance poses really force me to put my head into the game and that is what I need right now. That's what feels good, being able to be present. I've been struggling lately but it's the struggle that connects us, right?! Not the perfect social media lives we all share and get caught up in. So I'm sharing mine with you. My heart has been heavy, today was a shift forward, accepting where I am. Here. Now. With my feelings. Till tomorrow, Namaste my friends! ✌️❤️🧘‍♀️

My first yoga session with out my little buddy,💔 I miss him more then words can say. Definitely feels good to back on the mat. Meet bailey every one, He will be learning all about yoga with us!...

As I dragged myself to my mat tonight, low energy and reluctant, that energy quickly turned to a gratefulness. Grateful I am capable enough to be here, grateful that everything in this moment aligned for me to be right here on my mat.
Today's yoga was very much focused on the (asanas) poses, However not about doing them perfectly. More about listening to your body and finding that happy spot where it just feels good. The perfect spot that only you know is perfect. Slow mindful movements turning inward and listening to that inner voice!
Tonights thought...
Have a grateful heart, sit quietly, close your eyes and think of a few things your grateful for. Really feel them, notice how your heart feels lighter, happier. Allow yourself to soak it in.
So many amazing moments happen on the mat. I truly hope your finding the time to just show up for yourself! From my heart to your heart,✌️❤️🧘‍♀️ Namaste!

Today's time on the mat was all about healing yourself with quiet slow movements. Wrapping your self in the same nuturing hug you give others that are most dear to your heart.
Covering yourself with a blanket of self love❤️
sound corny?!?
I thought so to but if you allow yourself to trust in the process it takes you to a really lovely place! From my inner light to yours, Namaste ✌️❤️🧘‍♀️

Ahhhh! Night time yoga! I have not done this for a while. Tonight was all about balance and stretching! Tonight's thought....tomorrow is going to be a wonderful day, don't miss it.. STAY PRESENT! Namaste everyone, sweet dreams✌️❤️🧘‍♀️

Taking a little walk on the ocean and I see signs of balance everywhere!!
