Deep in Breath

This morning as I was counting down my 4 sun salutations I lost myself in my deep breathing and the joy of the flow of movement.  I completely forgot what number I was on: was it my 3rd or was it my 4th?  I laughed at myself and told my son, who jokingly told me to start all over again, so I did one more just in case.

How am I going to keep track as the numbers get higher?  I am open to suggestions!

Sun Salutation / Surya Namaskar - Sri Sri Yoga

August's Challenge: Sun Salutations

It has been way to long since I have done any decent amount of yoga.  I cannot think of a better way to start or end my day than with sun salutations.  I tried to find some 30 day challenges on line similar to those specific for the "30 day arm/abs/butt" challenges but really didn't find anything specific for sun salutations -lots of monthly yoga challenges though; so I made up my own calendar.

I definitely encourage anyone to join me in this one.  Start or end your day with some deep breathing and some wonderful body movements!

Isolation Sequence - Hoop Dance Tutorial | Free Hula Hoop Tutorials

I am excited to try these!  My hoop weighs in at 2 pounds so I'm not sure how steady I will be able to keep the darned thing when I first attempt these.  But talk about a great arm work out! Phew!

With only a week and a half left for this month's challenge I really like Deanne Love's tutorials; so this week I shall be posting some more of her videos.  I think I should really start to rev up my practice a bit!
