Journey to Handstand – Week 2 {Yoga Challenge}
This has probably been the most fun challenge so far because of things like "learning to fall" (day 9). Journey to Handstand hasn't just been about a single pose every day, but different activities that are really great for helping with handstands.

Let's Get Flexy In 2015 {Yoga Challenge}
A new yoga challenge starts on Sunday. This month, I'm participating in the Let's Get Flexy in 2015 challenge, hosted by Kino MacGregor and Kerri Verna, and sponsored by Aloyoga. There are two other challenges that I was considering doing. I was tagged by an Instagram friend for a backbend challenge, and @missbcross, who hosted … Continue reading Let's Get Flexy In 2015 {Yoga Challenge}
Be Strong in 2015 – Week 2 {Yoga Challenge}
The poses for the week were all pretty fun, with the exception of Baby Crow. The last pose, Samanasana, I'd never done before and was super awkward, but in a fun, 'glad I'm trying this at home and not in public' kind of way.

Weekly Workouts + Weekend Update
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. It was a decently tough workout, and I pushed hard, and only burned about 48 calories as per my … Continue reading Weekly Workouts + Weekend Update

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. I like back bends because they make me uncomfortable, but not in a painful way. I used to do back bends all the time … Continue reading Bend Into the New Year – Week 1 {Yoga Challenge}
A New Year of Workouts
I started 2015 off very casually, in yoga pants, sitting by the fire, drinking a mimosa-type drink with Buddha ice cubes, jotting down some notes in my new planner, and just talking with my husband. It was nice and relaxing, and we just barely made it to midnight. I've pinned a couple of new easy … Continue reading A New Year of Workouts
