30 Day Yoga Challenge – Day 3
Welcome Sisters !
Happy Sunday! I hope you are ready to get in tune with your body and harness your inner energy. When you think of getting in tune with your body what is the first thing that comes to mind?…. Write it down in your journal and lets focus our energy towards those things.
Because we run 100 mph the moments we get out of bed we tend to forget the basics of truly living in the moment. I can take a bet one of the first things you do is check our phones for messages or your social media. While I’ve been guilty of that myself I’ve decided to start a new routine for this entire yoga challenge.
Yes of course, I know you had to use social media to access day 3 of the yoga challenge. Are you going to spend time getting distracted by all the things or are you going to take the next 15-20 minutes getting in tune with your body and mind?
THIS Yoga challenge is just that a way to challenge your normal everyday habits and behaviors and maybe help you create a new more permanent one you LOVE.
Today’s pose Chatauranga Dandasana is going to challenge and push your limits so be prepared to give yourseld alot of grace and focus on breathing.
I highly recommend moving through the previous days poses mountain pose and plank pose to build the strength and habit you are looking for.
Now go step onto the mat with your head held high and a huge smile on your face because sister you are a ROCK STAR who’s completed day 1 and day 2.
Journal Prompt for day 3 will be focused on answering these questions:
Are you finding your dream job or are you creating it?
What is your favorite physical feature and why?
What is something you would love to learn?
