Finally catching up...well more like starting the #SplitForSummer #yogachallenge... splits are #goals for me... specifically a front spilt...and I've found that by not focusing on achieving them, I've gotten so much close than I've ever have. I've actually gotten deeper into it than I did today but even though I really warmed up, it just wasn't happening. I could feel I wanted and could go deeper but the hammies & hips weren't about it plus I wanted to keep my hips level and squared as much as possible. That was more important for me... Also as I always say in class, "listen to your body" I had to! Can't very well preach it and not practice it right? Okay I've rambled on enough... here's how it all unfolded today... swipe to see all posts. Day 1 #DownwardDogSplit - main focus here was keeping hips square and level ✅ Day 2 - #PropSplit - used the wall as my prop...actually used others but I liked this feeling here the most plus I am working towards feeling more comfy being upside down! ✅ Day 3 #FrontSplit - hands by my side and lift chest up...in my head my arms were reaching way above!!! 😆✅ Day 4 #CentreSplit - with these hips? Ha! I tried! I think this is as wide as I've ever gotten without feeling as though my femurs could pop out of the socket! Will take your advice @leighemily and try frog pose daily...maybe 😜 ✨💓✨ Awesome hosts: @leighemily @yoga_mami @fit_yoga_girl @crizia_rn_yoga ✨💓✨ Generous Sponsors: @re3life #Re3 #Re3life @tula.blue @yogapaws @gems_of_a_gypsy ✨💓✨ #SplitForSummer #split #halfsplit #fullsplits #middlesplit #monkeypose #hanuman #hanumanasana #hammies #stretch #flexibility #props #breathe #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #practiceandalliscoming #patience #focus #acceptance #gratitude #yogalove #yogafit #yogafitfam #inspiredyogis #yogini #naturalhairyogi #jenzenwellness #befreebetruebeyou
