Holiday is over

"Yoga is very similar to music; there is no end to it".

Now that the holidays are over we need to remind ourselves to get back into the swing of things, myself included. When we have a break or time to relax we get in a lazy groove. This goes with anything! Our house becomes a bit more cluttered and/or dirty. Left overs pile up in the fridge, our work-outs or routines fall apart & we tell ourselves we'll do it when we can. The thing is we both know we wont get around to it...

Keeping all these things in mind, make your home & body clean again! Easter was Sunday, so any left overs that are in your fridge should be thrown out. Keeping old stagnant food means we are taking in old stagnant energy. Same goes for unwashed clothes, sheets for our bed, towels for our shower. EVERYTHING carries energy & not just actual energy you hear the hippies talk about, but energy that sets a tone or mood for our day. Sleeping in fabric softener smelling sheets followed by a warm clean towel leaves me a very happy person! New clean clothes & a healthy fresh breakfast also puts a smile on my face. So make tonight a "semi-cleaning night". Get your breakfast planned, do some laundry, clean up around the house & make your Wednesday have a newer, better feel than your Monday & Tuesday had.

Did I forget yoga? What about massage?

Be sure you are treating your body like one of your most prized possessions. Try a new flow & rid of a routine you may be following. If you've been practicing too much or maybe not enough, treat yourself to a massage! Keep in mind I know the initial response is "I don't have time". "I don't have the money". Ive been there, I've said it. But if you make the time & put the money aside, you have no excuses. Can we PLEASE make the month of May a month for us?? It's time to treat our bodies to some luxury before we beat them up over the summer. When winter arrives I'll stop harassing you & let you hibernate!

New flow ideas...

Don't think I've forgotten.... Challenge yourself with a flow & treat your body to some love!
