Inventing A Migraine Restorative Practice? Suggestions?
My headaches are vastly, vastly improved since I've been seeing a homeopath---I feel like a whole new person with a whole new life. But I still get one now and then.
So I wasn't in suffer-mode, just didn't feel well, and wanted to do a light practice. I went through some of the paschimottanasanas, marichyasana c, pigeon, Katherine'… Continue

O Yoga, I Luv U, I Luv U, I Luv U. I Will Buy U Flowers.
I put together a playlist of yoga music last week, so I put it on shuffle when I practice by myself. That way, I don't hear the same songs over and over. Last night, I ended up with an especially good mix that included Niyaz, Loreena McKennitt, Panda Bear, Souad Massi, Natacha Atlas, Vas, Talitha Mackenzie and Martin Swan (from Mouth Music), and Watermelon Man by Herbie Hancock (what an awesome, awesome practi… Continue

The State Of My Backbend
Doesn't look horrific from the side, but I am having a very hard time straightening my arms and turning my armpits toward each other (they are bowing out like cowboy legs---very sad).
I wonder if it would be a bad thing to turn my wrists in… Continue

Oh, and my dog loves my mat, too. I have the best DOGA pics because of that!
Wow, I can only hope to "get better at" yoga so that one day I can actually move on to Ashtanga.. not quite there yet ;)
But I am spoiled by having friends that I regularly practice yoga with (four days a week). My primary practice buddy is going to India for a month this spring, though, and I am looking to that as my time to really get into the habit of daily solo practice. I intend to get on the mat every morning after meditation.
Teachers say consistent practice is the most important thing and, though I was practicing four days a week prior to WoYoPracMo, I find that my practice is already improved for adding the other three days. Some days, I only do suryanamaskaras plus a few poses (it adds up to about ten minutes). Most people could find ten minutes in their daily routine to practice, and then add longer practices when possible.
Have you found a time that works for you?
The other thing is, because I find it very difficult to practice alone sometimes, I have decided to use music to help me get through it. This helped the other day, so I'll be doing it again.
I hope you find what works for you!
