After years of loving Pilates and telling myself how I wouldn’t like slow-paced yoga, I am now just discovering how wrong I am. About two months ago I signed myself up for a Yoga class downtown where I live. I figured what a perfect way to get more flexible, work on my strength, and hopefully burn some calories… I never thought all of that would go out the window and instead be focusing on becoming a better person. The class has a lecture/notes section built into the program so you learn more about the practice of yoga and how it can improve your life.
I am more in sync with my body than ever. I feel like I have reset my body and mind. I had no idea that there were certain poses that would help your body detox more. Just little things like twisting out your sides to hold a pose can seriously help out your liver. {Trust me with the adult beverages I consume, my liver needs all the help it can get.} There are also restorative poses which help relax the nervous system and mind and help settle the body. {I need all the help I can get in that area!}
Anyone else practice yoga?
