In 18 years of practicing yoga, I’ve found that I will always have questions. Most days I have to make a Herculean effort to get on my mat and do something – anything.
With all of life’s ups and downs, here are my top 7 tips for your home practice:
-
1. Believe that you are worth the time.
-
2. Make an effort.
-
3. Go easy on yourself when you don’t rise to your own challenge.
-
4. Don’t judge yourself when you miss a day (or a month!).
-
5. Don’t judge yourself for judging yourself.
-
6. Do 1-2 poses that make you feel good.
-
7. Ingest a homeopathic dose of dark chocolate & get your ass on the mat.
Some of you will get on your mat for a few minutes every day. Some of you will do it once in a blue moon.
And it’s all ok!
