things i learn in yoga

2/19/2014

0 Comments

 
So today was quite a day.  I spent 12 hours today blissfully writing, not taking the time to break away for a walk or yoga like I should have.  My poor neck, shoulder and psoas muscles gradually became more and more irritated with my focus today.

Mr. Charming has started a new job, and we are so blessed for that, but it's definitely a challenge for him. He works in the medical field doing all kinds of important, smarty stuff so when he had to put in 13 hours today I didn't expect us to do much more than lay around when he got home. 

The other day, as I've been having some stress related issues lately, he did yoga with me. It was so nice to have a yoga buddy!  Tonight he asked if we could could do a session together again and I was beyond elated. Bonding time with my husband and yoga for my sore little muscles?  I was a happy woman.  And I wanted to share with you all what I learned in yoga tonight. 

Things I learned in yoga tonight:
  • The psoas muscle has almost as many nerve endings as your brain! (what?!)
  • That if you eat an italian dinner 20 minutes before yoga class, you will throw up a little during sphinx pose. I'm sorry if that's gross, but it's the truth, and I'm just saving you from doing the same thing.  You're welcome.  
  • I can touch my nose to my knee in a couple poses now which totally helps with my goal of having a "strong & capable" self image!
  • One instructor verses another can totally impact whether I completely relax or not. You have to check out Tamal Yoga.  He is wonderful and if I had a bajillion dollars, or you know a few extra grand laying around, I would be attending his retreat in Fiji this summer.

about

Nosh & Nurture was born of this journey I am on to better the health of myself, my family and those around me.  What started as a simple compilation of recipes has grown to a all-around lifestyle journal with ways to incorporate organic products into your home, pantry and beauty cabinet.  I also include stories on pregnancy, new motherhood, travel, Proverbs 31 marriage, and spiritual health, as I am a Christian who couldn't do any of this without my Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. For more of my story you can click here. 

All recipes are gluten-free and dairy-free with a lot of soy-free, grain-free, sugar-free options.
