Yoga Challenge, Day 15: Halfway there!

At the time of this writing, I have fourteen sessions down, sixteen to go. Lunchtime yoga today will make it an even half.

And I think I've found my reward - more yoga! :) I've been thinking about this a lot, how to thank myself and reward myself for sticking with it. And I've come to the conclusion that there's nothing I really want right now. I know my husband is getting me jewellery of some sort for Christmas, and it's not like I need more bling in any case. I still love my orange yoga mat, and haven't found another one that I like as much, even if mine did need replacing at the moment (which it doesn't.) I'm not ready for another tattoo yet. And as much as I love massages, pedicures, and the whole spa experience, it doesn't really feel like a reward to me - maybe because they're over too fast, I don't know.

So I was just beginning to think that maybe I would defer the reward to another time. And then all of a sudden this popped up in my Twitter feed. It looks perfect - because one thing I know for sure I'll need, is more options for my home practice. The ones I have are great, but I have a feeling I'll be a bit bored of them by the end of the month. Also, I'm going to need a new challenge physically. I don't expect to have mastered these ones (for example, I don't think I'll ever be able to bend my body into this position...), but they're definitely getting easier. Which is great, but I need to keep challenging myself as well!

There's also a "curvy" option for this practice, which contains modified poses for people who are less bendy for whatever reason. I think I'll probably stick with the standard version, but I do like the fact that the option is available. And my good friend P. says she'll do it with me, so I think I'm sold!

Yoga, yoga, and more yoga. Love it.
