This past week started off pretty average, workout wise. I tried one of the new workouts that I pinned (Burn 100 calories in 10 minutes: Do this total body workout at home!) and was very underwhelmed.

Bend Into the New Year – Week 1 {Yoga Challenge}
Here is the first week of poses for the Bend Into the New Year yoga challenge, hosted by @karma_bhakti and @missbcross. I really like the poses in this challenge so far.

The first few … Continue reading December's Yoga Challenge – Just Be Present – Week 1

I will always remember Miss … Continue reading November's Yoga Challenge – Healing Hearts – Week 2
