Now, now, don’t you go crumble under pressure.

TvT February is really a not so nice month for me. Gotta get that stuff out of my system. I am also not used to drawing Papyrus still.

Episode 42/Pre Yoga Retreat!

I’m leaving for a yoga retreat tomorrow.  I went to the Dragonfly Yoga Barn last fall for my first ever yoga retreat.  It jump started my practice, and I came back to New York feeling energized and excited to live.  I’ve been a little bit lazy with the season change, and I’m looking forward to getting up to New Hampshire to do yoga and drink tea all weekend.  

I haven’t done yoga in about a week.  The last practice I did, I led myself.  I picked some poses I liked and moved through them in about a half hour.  “Better than nothing.”  I told myself.  I’ve been finding that doing at least a little bit will sometimes lead me into doing more than I originally planned to do.  Which is good, since I’m inherently lazy.

My bag is packed and I’m ready to go tomorrow.  I did Episode 42 for two reasons:  1.) To get ready for bed, 2.) to ease myself into doing a full weekend of yoga.  This practice had hip work, and was only 40 minutes.  As this practice progressed, I was so glad that I took the time to do it.  My hips were tight, a byproduct of running in freezing cold weather, and a lack of yoga practice.

This podcast was designed for people who travel and/or sit for a living.  Airplanes are a terror for your hips and back so this practice should provide some relief.  I’ve been reading some internet articles talking about just how bad sitting for extended periods of time can be for your body.  As a result, I try to incorporate hip openers into every practice I do.  I also don’t sit at my desk at home anymore.  I fashioned a kind of “standing desk”, where I’ll do my internets and other biz.  

I’m looking forward to tomorrow.  I feel ready and able for a yoga retreat.

40 Minutes of Spring Cleaning!

This was a shorter podcast, and pretty straightforward. 

    I had just gotten out of bed and looked at my phone.  I had to be at work in 2 hours.  I didn’t have enough time for a full practice so I opted for the 40 minute practice from 2009.  There were lots of the ol’ classic poses in this practice: Sun Salutations, Vinyasas, and some hip work.  I could tell Sarah was putting harder poses in the beginning to warm us up before a final savasana.  I came out of this practice feeling refreshed, but at the same time wished I had the time for a longer practice.  I recommend this one for morning time if you’re pressed and want to squeeze in a quick practice to start your day off right.  Here’s the link.

I saw this video and initially thought, there is no way people want to work out staring at a static group of bookshelves.  As I continued to watch the videos I thought about just how interactive this process could be.  With the monitors giving you constant real time feedback it is completely conceivable that this could be the next big work out trend.  I would like to give it a try to see for myself and if anyone here has tried, please let us know.
