Getting there...

A few months ago, my mother convinced me to try out a yoga class with her. I was skeptical because I thought it was going to be slow and boring. Then it turned out to be a whole lot of fun and I've been going ever since.

I've actually been holding my own in the class. My balance and coordination are getting honed and my flexibility is getting better. The one thing that I have not been able to do though is a position called the Plow.





For the life of me I cannot lay on my back and get my feet up over my head. I've been determined to get it though and for the last week or so I keep trying with no success. So, tonight I ran through a yoga video on Netflix, after my daughter went to bed, just to relax and I figured why not, I'll try again. I was smart this time though and used the couch to get my feet up over my head.



The position is actually really comfortable once I can flip around and get into it. As you can see I still have a long way to go, but that's why this blog is called a work in progress, right? Sometimes, you have to celebrate the journey, as well as when you reach your goal!
