A Thought and a Reminder

This is as much for me as it is for you:

Stop thinking of yoga as just exercise to sweat.
Love yoga for all its benefits, including to heal.

Listen to your body an know what it needs in that day.
Some days that might be a very fast, strong, dynamic flow.
But if its not, so what?! Just get on the mat.

So often I find myself not getting on the mat at all because I don't have it in me for a full practice in that moment. What a waste!

Today I'll lay down and put my legs up against the wall and enjoy the restorative lower back posture. And I'll know that I did what I needed to do for my body in that moment.
