Made it thru Monday Beam

1.8.13

We made it through the first Monday of the Year! Hopefully you were able to strive through and not feel dragged through.  There is a ton going on moment to moment, which is all we have so here are the highlights from the last few days!  Stay tuned for recipes coming this week and more postures of the day!  Toward the end of this post check out the Yogi Sisterhood demonstrating all 7 Postures of the Day so far, and we now have a Facebook page for them, support us with a little likeage:)

King Pigeon...this is the first yoga picture I ever took....the first "cool" posture I didn't even know I could do till my guru  saw it in me and came over to me and showed me the foot hold...then magically it happened and has been getting better and better ever since.  Pigeon is the posture for Day 3....Continue to the last pictures for all the days in a row being demonstrated by the Yogi Sisterhood

This is in Georgia in 2011 on Stone Mountain. Fancy Pose and Fancy Scenery:)

Party for my Papa's bday(the dad of my lil bros  and my stepdad since I was two:)  My mom made about a thousand amazing enchiladas, beans, rice, salsa, carrot cake, the whole shabannnng.  I literally meditated on the way over and asked God to help me only eat what I needed...I ended up with an amazing salad, vegan beans and rice and frutas!

Tree Pose with half Lotus and Reverse Prayer variations day 4.  Quote of the day during yoga class while in this posture, "If you fell out maybe on this side focus more, if you didn't fall out, maybe on this side go deeper and don't worry about falling" -K.S. (may not be verbatum as I was mainly focused on not passing out:) Yoga Tropics Vinyasa Fridayze!

Sometimes you just gotta get pretty pink stuff to  make cleansing yourself more fun!  Dr. Bronners if your not on it get it, dry brushing your skin before you shower...research it and practice your skin will thank you, Exfoliating gloves, foot power, tweezers of course and Coco oil for everything.

Day 7! Plow Pose!

Day 6! Cobbler's Pose!
 so as you can see you can lay in it, sit in it, or go up against the way and go for it, also you could put pillows under knees to help for tighter hipsters.

Day 5! Supported Crescent Pose!

Day 4! Tree Pose!
If beginner start with the soul of your foot against the calf of your standing leg, then for more advanced go higher with the foot, and different arm variations

Day 3! Pigeon Pose!
This one also has many variations, on your back (reclining pigeon),  surrendered to the mat, sitting up working deeper variations like Mermaid, and King Pigeon

Day 2!  Bow Pulling Pose

Day 1!  Lotus Pose (here with the twist)
