Moving Toward Balance : 8 Weeks of Yoga with Rodney Yee
I’m starting to work through this 8 week program. I’ve tried yoga off and on for the last couple years – more off than on. I’m pretty inflexible at this point. My legs are particularly stiff, so much so that I can’t sit straight up against a wall with my legs extended out in front of me. Likewise I’m not going to do a standing forward bend and put my hands flat on the floor while keeping my legs straight. But that’s okay. I need to remind myself to simply take the postures as far as I’m able. The real key will be whether or not I stick with the program. Right now I have the book out from the library. If I stick with it until the due date then I’ll go ahead and buy the book. It’s the library’s only copy and there are other people waiting for it so I’m not going to be able to keep it long enough to finish the program.
It felt good this morning to do the exercises even if I am limited in my range of motion.
