There’s more to yoga than the poses…
With being away, and then being ill over Christmas, I didn’t get chance to do a full yoga flow for myself. Instead, I focused on small isolated stretches to help me move (especially after I had spent time resting in bed or on the sofa).
And that was it…I took the opportunity to rest and recharge…that also included last week when the pull to exercise and get moving was strong. I’ve took it steady, allowed myself time to recover and not rushed back to full speed this last week.
I also took moments (when we were lucky enough to be away) to take in the quiet moments with my family and feel grateful for our health and time together. We were in a beautiful place and I allowed myself to immerse myself in it, rather than worry about work or social media (the only photos I took were ones for myself rather than worry about how they’d look online).
And so my yoga practice was more about rest, family time and gratitude…so please let this be a reminder to you all too: we don’t have to rush back at 1000miles an hour, sometimes our practice can be about the quiet moments where we make time for ourselves.
And for many of you, I know that’s what draws you to class. The quiet moments in child’s pose or savasana when it’s not about the physical benefits, but a time where you’re quiet, alone with your thoughts and you get to change the pace. ☺️😌✨
So here’s to the quiet moments 🤫
