Bethlehem VegFest 2014
It's been a week since this year's Bethlehem VegFest and I'm already excited about next year. Just like last year, being in a place where you know everything is vegan and nothing is off limits is an amazing feeling. There was no walking around looking for a place that sold only salads or veggies, or possibly a … Continue reading Bethlehem VegFest 2014
Balance Basics Yoga Challenge
September's yoga challenge is a Balance Basics challenge. This looks like a great set of poses that anyone can do. There's only a few more difficult poses towards the end and the hosts always have modifications if you aren't there yet. This month's challenge is sponsored by Athleta, and hosted by the always amazing @KinoYoga, @beachyogagirl, … Continue reading Balance Basics Yoga Challenge

Day 8: Marichyasana A. Day 9: Marichasana B. Day 10: Ardha Baddha Padma Paschimottanasana. Half-Bound Lotus Seated Forward Bend. (Even though my picture is missing the bound part...oops.)

Summer Splits Final Week
I really loved the summer splits challenge. It was a good combination of splits, hip openers, and arm balances. Below, I've posted the final few poses and then a before and after shot of Lord of the Dance pose. Want to see a HUGE improvement in this one? Click here. I'm using the wall, and … Continue reading Summer Splits Final Week
She's Got Legs August Yoga Challenge
I'm so excited for this upcoming challenge. The goal is to be able to put your foot/feet behind your head (like pictures #27 and #29), so saying I'm excited is an understatement. I've always been able to get my leg up, but I have this crazy fear it's going to get stuck behind my head … Continue reading She's Got Legs August Yoga Challenge
June Splits Week 4 and Progress Pictures
Here are days 22-25 of the June Summer Splits challenge. I loved this challenge because I can really see the progress. In March, I posted this: And then during the challenge, I got this: Honestly, I only practiced the pose a few times between March and June, it wasn't until starting the daily yoga challenges that … Continue reading June Splits Week 4 and Progress Pictures
Summer Splits Challenge Week 3
Here is the 3rd week of the summer splits challenge in pictures. I wrote a few paragraphs on updates we've done to our house so far (sparked by the green door picture), but they didn't really seem to flow with a post about yoga poses. So for this pose I'll just share these pictures and … Continue reading Summer Splits Challenge Week 3
Independence ARMy Yoga Challenge
After some internal debating, I decided to fully jump on board for the Independence ARMy yoga challenge for July. At first, I was hesitant because I think I'll struggle with a lot of the poses, but in the end I decided that it's probably a good thing to do a *challenging* challenge. I'd also like … Continue reading Independence ARMy Yoga Challenge
