*I did the Yamuna Total Body workout last night. I found the DVD at the Goodwill, still sealed, and had it for... gosh, at least a year, but have never done the workout!
I started out with the stomach rolling, then ended up doing the remainder of the workout for the other body parts. I don't have her ball, but I ended up using my 10MS pilates ball. in some cases, I used a small, air-filled, athletic ball, which came with my Mitch Gaylord Melt It Off kit. the stomach rolling was pretty good. I have to say I've finally found something to release stomach tension/anxiety. Barbara Benagh recommends doing something similar (supported crocodile pose in her Stillness segment from YfSR) 3x/week. *I slept liked a total LOG last night... those who have Yamuna's balls, are they anything special?

My set of Jill Miller’s Yoga Tune Up balls and her On Demand Therapy dvds came yesterday so had to try them last night.....love them!!! I'm so glad I made this purchase! I was just going to do the hip section on the wall (since my hip is mainly what has been bothering me); but, when I finished that, I decided to try the lower back one (since lower back could be part of my hip issue), then thought I'll just try the upper back. By that point there was just shoulders & feet left so did those too. I was very surprised with the foot rolling section since I really don’t have any feet problems that I know of! When she tells you to do a body check at the beginning of the foot section and has you bend over and notice how the backs of your legs felt.....then after doing one foot, to do this again.....oh my goodness! I could not believe the difference and anxiously did the other foot. Wow, it felt really good! After that, I popped in the floor dvd and did just the hip/buttock section of that. That one hurt a bit more but I still liked it.
I felt so relaxed after doing this! It's great! |
