I made it to yoga class this morning! And once again, I found myself thinking, “Why don’t I do this more often?†It feels so good. I’m still taking regular vinyasa flow classes; I just modify the poses as necessary (no inversions and no laying flat on my back). 22 weeks pregnant, and I can still do most moves. I really surprised myself when I managed to get into Bird of Paradise – but only on my right side! Left leg was too hard for some reason.
Obviously – an OLD pic! Now, I’ve got to scoot my belly out of the way first. Hah.
Here’s something that I bet will stick with you forever – you know the “regular†way to roll your yoga mat? Well, it puts all the icky other-people sweat and dirt and God-knows-what-else all over the side of the mat that you put your face. So here’s a better {cleaner} way to roll your mat – first fold it in half. This keeps the outside on the outside and the inside on the inside!
Now you know!
My weekend has been filled with lots of small projects and lots of relaxing – a great balance. I woke up before everyone else and got to spend some quiet time reading, sipping coffee, and listening to rain – BLISS.
We also finally got around to cutting Henry’s hair… I’ve been putting it off since the long curls are so cute. The Husband did a really good job, though, and the short ‘do looks great.
I’m way too chicken to get near my toddler with a pair of sharp scissors! I’ll leave it to the semi-pros.
And we did some fingerpainting. Which turned into bellypainting.
Off to do some gardening! Gotta seize the Sunday magic.
Thought of the Day:
Brilliant yoga mat trick! I always had to clean my mat before use for all the dirt and hair that stuck to it from being rolled up. Eww.
