Hatha Yoga

Doing the Pigeon!

(I can!)

Morning!

I recently started exercising again.

A friend of mine asked if I would like to

try yoga (Hatha Yoga).

The instructor is so patient and

helps you through it.

I started with light and easy.

The first few times I would

just drip sweat.

It was a challenge.

I convinced my hubs that this

would be a great addition to his

exercise routine to make him

more flexible.

We did a couple more light and easy classes.

Saturday, I decided it was time for me

to go twice a week.

I chose Saturday mornings and

Monday evenings.

We show up Saturday morning and

get all set, not knowing we entered

the advanced class!

The instructor laughed at me half

way through as I'm really sweating

my way through! She said:

You said you wanted to get stronger!

I do and I am!

Well, it turns out that Monday's

are actually advanced classes too!

She had just been modifying them to easy

because there were a lot of new people.

So, Saturday and last night I did

advanced yoga.

Oh do my abs hurt!!!

Who knew yoga was such a core

building thing!

I was completely ignorant about yoga,

until now!

I am enjoying it very much though!

I would suggest others with fibromyalgia try

the light and easy yoga.

It is really helping the pain level in my trigger areas.

When I get use to the advanced class,

I will increase to 3 days a week.

Have you tried anything new lately??

I will try making that pillow,

I think I need to move it to next week.

I didn't realize all I needed to do this week.

Have a great day!!!

Hugs!
