Hello there!! the crazy yoga girl is back 😀 I have been practicing a lot of inversions last few weeks and praying hard for the doorframe to not to break.
The first thing to remember while doing yoga is not to push too hard. It’s not a competition. While doing cardio or planks, I don’t mind pushing few seconds more but I feel Yoga requires a completely different mindset. As soon as the body says enough, just stop, else you may end up with sore wrists and elbow pains. I do tend to go overboard with crow pose, trying to perfect it, which is ridiculous because it’s never about perfection. It’s about being comfortable.
Anyway, I am happy to see my arm balances getting a tad bit better 🙂 This crow is getting stronger and higher.
What hurts you, blesses you. Darkness is your candle – Rumi
All these days I have been using my boring grey yoga pants while practicing, but last week I received this colourful pair, purchased at an amazing price from Aliexpress. Soft, good fit, comfortable, with designs and everything.

As the winter is setting in, I miss going out early in the morning. Need to find courage to kick off the blanket in 8 degrees. Brrrrr !!!
My God .. I am so in awe of you ! Awesome flexibility. I think I am just going to go have a bar of chocolate to get over my state of unhealthi-ness 😛
Your flexibility is amazing! These are moves I couldn't imagine doing even thirty years ago. Well done!
aww Debbie. You are so sweet. Thank you. 😀
That flexibility is giving me an insecurity complex. That crow pose! Goddamn!! I want to do yoga too without breaking myself. -_-
Sorry for being away.
hehehehe thank you so much Red. Glad to see you on my blog 🙂
You are so amazing, Rajlakshmi and my constant inspiration for Yoga. I am flexible but not as much as you are.
