Life is too short to worry about what other people say or think about you, so have fun and give them something to talk about. #onebreathatatime #livingmyyogilife #poweredbyyoga #igyogi #yogabum #behappy #havefun

Day 9 #TheHeartOfPractice #bigtoehold hosted by @beachyogagirl sponsored by @liforme and @omstarsapparel . . . One of my many favourites, I find this posture very relaxing and helps to slow the mind, clear the thoughts and helps you focus on the breath. . . #onebreathatatime #practicemakesprogress #practiceyogachangeyourworld #practiceandalliscoming #yogaeverydamnday #instayogi #yogabum #livingmyyogilife #igyoga

Day 8 #TheHeartOfPractice #heronpose hosted by @beachyogagirl sponsored by @liforme and @omstarsapparel . . . I was pleasantly surprised how much progress I've made in this posture since I practiced it last. Its easy to just go straight into heron pose but if you out in the work and the prep poses working towards heron you can really feel the difference. It never pays to skip steps. Put in the time and watch the results roll in. This posture is a little rough on my knee so ive propped my pose using a block. This doesn't alter the lovely hamstring stretch, it just relieves the pressure on the knee joint. #propyourpose #yogaprops #practiceandalliscoming #practiceyogachangeyourworld #onebreathatatime #livingmyyogilife #yogastretch #yogaeverydamnday #ashtangi #yogacommunity #yoga #igyoga

Day 7 #TheHeartOfPractice #downwardfacingdog #downdog hosted by @beachyogagirl sponsored by @liforme and @omstarsapparel . . . As it was still nice out but a little breezy thought I'd take it outside again in the fresh air. I love down dog, it's one of my favourite resting postures strangely enough. When I began yoga, down dog was a struggle and holding it was like climbing a mountain. When someone told me that I'd love "resting" in down dog I laughed. Yet I find myself loving down dog especially during ashtanga practice. Remember to lift the tail bone high, draw in the navel nd pelvic floor muscles and create a nice slope from your hips to your fingertips. Stay grounded and breath into any tightness.

Day 3 #TheHeartOfPractice #utrasana #camelpose hosted by @beachyogagirl sponsored by @liforme and @omstarsapparel . . . . I do love utrasana, it's one of my favourite back bends and it more challenging than it first appears. Always lift up through the pelvis pressing forward and lift the sacrum and rib cage to create space in the lower back and prevent pain. Some times its actually your knees or the tops of your feet that hurt so don't be scared to use a towel folded for use under ur knees and or feet. . . . #practiceandalliscoming #practiceyogachangeyourworld #ashtangayoga #ashtangasecondseries #onebreathatatime #yogaeverydamnday #yogainspiration #yogaeverywhere #igyoga #yoga
