Traveling is so much fun, and sometimes, so hard on our bodies. Sitting in a car, or on an airplane, or in a bus for hours can make for sore spots and less enjoyable moments.
Here are a few of my favorite yoga poses I use to help recovery from, or sometimes, incorporate into long travel days.
Finding a comfortable place to be still can be VERY difficult! This is a process, so, I have broken it down into short daily practices. You can do it all at once, or, you can try each step on a different day. My hope is that within a week you might find a space that works for you.
But I will say what every yoga instructor would say if you are wobbling out of balance in a pose; focus on your core. Breath into any areas of tension. Some discomfort can be ok, but don’t try to force something lest you hurt yourself. Give yourself grace for being where you are. Find your center, and be strong in it.
One of my wonderful clients asked if we could make a video of some of the shoulder work we had done together. She wanted this so that she could share with a group of swimmers she is helping to coach. I happily agreed!
Here is a short shoulder series built to help swimmers, but really, it's good for anyone with shoulders! Hope you Enjoy.
How strange it is to watch the storm in our mind. Some days we may have light cloudiness, mostly sun, some days it’s like watching that inevitable dark cloud grow closer by the minute. The storm clouds of our mind can be much more challenging to deal with then the storm clouds in the sky.
It's a new year!! It's an easy time to set new goals, evaluate where we are at, what we want in our future, and maybe, decide what we want to change. New year's resolutions here we come. It seems that a lot of people make the resolution to be "healthier" in the new year. This resolution often include some kind of diet, and some sort of exercise.
