I actually did the Sun Salutations this morning!! At moments it was a pain (beginner level of course) but then it became all nice and I felt so good!! I found this other one called love yourself. Looks good so I am going to try it when I am done with school for the day <3

It looks good and relaxing!!!

It was so hard for me to keep up with the down dog pose because my hands hurt because of the weight and my ankles were hard to keep but I think I did good!! I am not changing from that one until I can do it all perfectly. My favorite part was when I could lie down to relaaax!! Hahahaaha My mat is so comfortable <3

How's Rise and Shine?

Sometimes you need to adjust your wrists a bit. In downward dog, your weight should be distributed throughout your limbs, not just your arms/hands. That might help :)

Rise and Shine was basically all the yoga ever compacted into 35 minutes, and it was too fast for me. I was still inhaling when she was exhaling and moving on to the next pose. So I don't think I'll do that one again, at least not for a while and definitely not in the mornings. :x

I am definitely going to try best tomorrow morning when I do it again!

I felt the same way!! The woman was like "moderate your breathing" and I was like inhale-exhale-in-ex-in-ex constantly because it really warmed me up. I think the morning was the best time!! I am surprised it wasn't hard to wake up, Iwoke up at 7:30am all by myself (when I was meant to wake up at 8:30) but decided to stay awake because I'd sleep forever if I tried to go back to bed.

First day of yoga feels good!! Oh, I saw a pilates section on the yoga videos. i didn't know it had to do with yoga stuff.

I've been trying to motivate myself to start doing yoga every day. I don't exercise enough! Maybe this group can help me with my (lack of) motivation.

Do you have any suggestions of videos to watch?

Hello and welcome! Of course we have! First post recommends the 'do yoga with me' page for amazing videos. Recommended my lovely So far, I've found it to be an amazing page. You can select what kind of yoga, the level you want to do and the kind of yoga that interests you <3

Thank you! This looks amazing! I will definitely try to break my laziness and try to do this later. I also want a yoga mat because my apartment has a super strange layout so there isn't really an ideal place to do yoga .. plus hardwood floors.

Wood is better than my plain mosaic tiles!! Not nice. I bought a mat during the weekend and I found out that mats are cheaper in the supermarket than in the sports shops. For real, and the quality is just the same!!! I looked for the longest one because that gives me more space to lie down without touching the cold floor :P

That's good because I was going to get one at the supermarket! I am so not athletic that the thought of going to a sports shop did not even cross my mind.

And ouch, mosaic tiles sound pretty awful! I tried to do yoga on my living room rug but it was kind of uncomfortable so I think I'll probably pick up a mat today. I need to go to the store for multiple reasons and have been procrastinating.

Fun Fact. Today I read from a great shaman (Lolita Vargas) that today's a good day for new starts! I thought it was funny because I started my yoga today <3

I don't completely believe in them but is indeed great motivation. I boosts your mood to do some kind of activity and I am not a fan of sports either. I hate running, I do enjoy bicicles but I don't have one. So Yoga is perfect!!

I LOVE riding bicycles! I used to do it all the time and I would be really fit from it, but I haven't really done any riding since I moved. It's sad too because I HAVE a bicycle and we live right by a trail. I just don't know the area so I don't really feel safe going alone, and my boyfriend doesn't have one.

I also hate running! I have horrid lung capacity and always have. I tried to get started into the habit of doing yoga every day a few weeks ago but it failed. I think this group will help :)

I won't have any problem being online. Maybe with the yoga. I'll report back after I try today. HOPEFULLY!

I think I remember you telling us in the group about the hot yoga!
