You REALLY don't need Money to practice YOGA ! There are often people who teach for free ! & a good book perhaps from even the library like (Petri raisanen) can help you on your yoga journey !Money should not stop you from practicing something that could change your life & you can practice yoga anywhere!! The most important thing in yoga is your wanting to do it and if want to progress you will ! Laziness isn't a requirement though! Lol! I'm going to be doing a yoga challenge on instagram hosted by @kinomacgregor , @beachyogagirl , #Mayibeginyoga starts may 1st I'm going to do it with my children and partner .There are many challenges and helpfully yogis on instagram a great way to look at yoga!Enjoy!!

Part of the many fun reasons to be on instagram if your a yogi! This is an idea for 200 yogis paired up by taking the names out of a hat!Then each pair will send each other a appropriate gift! Simple as that .Love it positive fun pity the world isn't more like this!!

Grasshopper pose ! It's my third year of ashtanga yoga !Never even thought about yoga once before I tried my first class!Although this is Not a typical ashtanga pose I do in my daily practice it is one of the many self taught poses I am able to do with relative ease !But I'd never even tried one of the many poses outside my primary series practice till this time last year .My first year on instagram !! Yoga gives you incredible strength as well as flexibility Which i never obtained when I just lifted weights! But you do have to practice !! Ashtanga yoga is not easy if your committed to the traditional six days a week which I now do .You only achieve results from what you put in, you can talk all you like about yoga But you can't cheat yoga Your efforts are reflected in your practice ! NAMASTE

On my way home to Cornwall last night on the Devon coast rd .The best thing about yoga is that it's brought back all the fun of my childhood!! I've always trained for one sport or another since I was eight !But I haven't wanted to leap out of the car on so many occasions to pull a pose Just because it's fun !It also makes others SMILE!! and that can only be a good thing!!

Last Day of the instagram twinning challenge ; crow pose with my son ! He's getting stronger every week They grow up fast! Every day Can be a great memory ;perhaps one day he will become a yoga teacher ?Who knows ! but I want to give my children as many chances to become what they want in life !A true ashtanga practice will give them the discipline to tackle anything life throws at them!
