Yes, I Consider Yoga Part of My Lounging Time.

Many years ago I found a love for power yoga. For once, I found a form of exercise that I craved and looked forward to.  In an effort to get myself back into the practice when I moved to Los Angeles, I decided to train as a power yoga instructor.  Not only is it a great way for me to help others, it allows me to help myself.  While I love to lounge around and watch movies, read books and yack on the phone, this practice of yoga is the best form of relaxation I can find.  While the workout is active, vigorous and intense, the peace you I find in a workout happens during and after I’m finished.  I feel better, sleep better, look better…and I could go on! My friend Emily was kind enough to shoot me in some of the poses I thought may be fun to share.

Inversions are the best!  I’m addicted.  Going upside down gets the energy running to my brain but is somehow soothing to me! Here are a few pics of me playing around in my headstand.

The challenging aspect of power yoga is what drives me each and every time I practice.  I sweat so intensely and that is amazing.  Here are some of the arm balances that I’m working on.  There are so many more that I can’t do and I’m trying to conquer, but it’s going to take time.  Here’s where I’m at so far.

By the way…I’m wearing Erin Braxton leggings and tunic tank.  If you’re ever in L.A., definitely stop by Earth’s Power Yoga and try my power yoga class!
