Today was Eoin's Shoulder High practice from Power Yoga for Happiness 2, followed by a guided morning meditation for gratitude & a perfect day with Boho Beautiful.

I wish everyone a safe, healthy and happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

So, big surprise, probably restarting my sadhana since I missed so many days of yoga again.

Vannie, you can start with me!

Today was my Day 1. I went to a lovely 90-minute class at the studio where I teach that featured live acoustic guitar music. It was a great blend of gentle stretching, a bit of flow, a long meditation/shavasana, and readings for the new year.

Happy New Year, all!

Since I slept in today and had friends to visit, I only had time for a short practice so I chose Eoin's Quickie practice on his PY4H DVD.

Thank you, Pat! I probably did yoga at least 2-3 days in a row prior to yesterday, but I'll keep 1/1 as my official start date.

For Day 2, I did two nice YouTube yoga practices today.

Kate Vantucci's Hips & Shoulders:
