Shoulder Stands

I did it, I did it, I did it!

Today in yoga I was finally able to do a shoulder stand. The instructor payed special attention to me, because last week I approached her after class and told her that I want to learn to do a shoulder stand. And tonight... I did it and it was amazing.

I was looking at my lower body, folding over my upper body, and my form was almost that of a dancer.

It was incredible.

I am looking forward to many more of these moments in yoga in the coming months... you know... those moments where never in a million years do you think you can do something - and then... one day, you just do it, and surprise yourself with how well you do it. This is just fueling my motivation to attempt more things I never thought I could do!

Awesome!

  2. that's beautiful... I miss yoga... I haven't found a place here yet, that makes me comfortable enough to keep going back, and I don't know enough to practice on my own... keep at it. I'm living vicariously!
