Im very excited to share this today. My dear friend Betsy contacted me a few days ago about being a part of a 30 day yoga challenge with her and a few of our online friends. We would love to extend this to anyone who is up for the challenge of doing a little bit of self love practicing over the next 30 days. We will be keeping each other encouraged online on twitter and facebook. See below to find out where and how.
I currently practice yoga once a week, and have always wanted to make it a daily practice. But it is very easy to come up with every excuse in the world why I cant. I love the idea of having a group of girls with the same loving intentions to help keep me motivated. Sometimes that is all we need. And even though this is a self love challenge, I know Ill be helping my friends along the way too. So many of us lead such busy lives, with little ones running around or very active businesses to run, its so easy to neglect our own bodies. I myself, am one of those. Just having Betsy send me that email has already motivated me!
If you are someone who would love to participate in this but do not care for yoga, we are also welcoming other healthy activities as well, such as hooping or pilates. Something that you feel personally resonates with you and your personal mind and body health. I will be doing a split yoga/hooping challenge myself. I will spend the first part warming up with some yummy yoga and then reving it up with some hooping.
Lets help each other! Encourage each other. This is not a competition, and is for anyone, any level of health or fitness, any level of knowledge of yoga. You have to start somewhere. Thank you so much Betsy for lighting this beautiful fire.

you should join us! even if its just for 10 minutes a day!
ReplyDeleteI'll be joining in with yoga. Thank you so much for the inspiration. I'm excited.
ReplyDeleteDid you know you inspired to me to buy a weighted hula hoop? I had a cheap plastic one that became to difficult to use so I stopped altogether. And then I would read your posts about it every so often and I finally decided to go ahead and buy one. It came in the mail last week (I posted a few pictures on my blog). I've hooped a little bit every day since then : ] Perhaps I will continue with it along to this 30 day challenge : ]
ReplyDeleteCount me in! I'm also a once or twice a week kinda gal so this is an awesome and beautiful idea! Love it!
ReplyDeletei am, IN! i couldn't have stumbled upon this at a more perfect time. i've been meaning to get back into pilates for EVER now... and finally actually started on sunday. only to take yesterday off. and then today? it's easy to find an excuse not to since it's "feb14th." see what i mean. i really want to continue though. could use the inspiration and the moral support as well as reciprocate for my own mind, body and soul!
