Hello everyone!
Just as a little preamble – what a fancy
word for a blog post – I want to say that I did complete Day 6 yesterday and
Day 7 today. I didn’t get lazy or forgot. But I didn’t have any Internet at my
granddad’s house yesterday which is why I’m blogging about both days now.
Day 6
Today, the exercises focussed on the lower
back. Compared to yesterday, it felt amazing to do something a bit more
relaxing and a little less painful, even though I didn’t feel as proud.
I’m also not too sure if I have been doing
the poses right because I did not feel very much of a stretch. So either I’m
totally flexible in the shoulder area which would, to say the least, surprise
me, OR I have just been doing something wrong. Of course, for the sake of my
self esteem, I will go with the first option.
The absolute highlight was starting on the
bridge pose. I have always loved to do the bridge – or an alike pose – when I
was little and it made me happy that I could still do it quite well.
The only downside of today was the Happy
Baby Pose – apparently everyone’s favourite. It certainly wasn’t mine because
no matter how hard I tried, I just could not grab my feet.
Day 7
Because I only got the Internet back in the
afternoon and still had family over, I didn’t get to do Day 7 of the challenge
until the evening. Today the focus was on the crow pose. I had never heard of
it before and once I saw what it was, I was quite impressed that I was supposed
to be at such a level of yoga already.
I couldn’t quite do it yet, but the
instructor said that this pose needs some practice and will eventually get
better.
I can’t quite believe that I’ve already
gone a week with this. All in all, it’s been a lot of fun so far :) xx
