My Yoga Journey

A couple of years ago I decided to change my lifestyle and start exercising and eating clean. Not only was I not happy with what I saw in the mirror - I was unmotivated and easily discouraged with all aspects of my life. Soon as I started exercising and seeing the results of my efforts I hooked.I still have a lot to learn about fitness, nutrition and self-motivation. Early this year I took on yoga - this is my journey :) http://instagram.com/chichi_01

Straight Handstand 💞 Beginning to understand the addiction to handstands or any inversion for that matter. There's a sweet spot in your handstand where everything around you goes quiet and your mind is completely void of any thought...

We have thoughts of thoughts and memories of memories...
