April- we’re still trying for consistency with our yoga practice. Flow is still here, we’re just doing the best we can!

I'd love to join you! I'm starting from nowhere, so five mins a day will be a win for me and I know it will make a difference

Hello, I'll jump on board for this too if that's alright 😄

I always did the 30 day YWA journeys in January when they were live but have fallen off the regular yoga wagon a bit since.

I have a perfect storm of house move (and related building work), job uncertainty and mono flare ... I can't do any other exercise right now and obviously doc's advice is to destress 😅I have EDS, so not doing any exercise is bad cause my joints are more likely to come out when doing no exercise, so I am hoping a bit of regular yoga will be doable without overdoing it!

@calamariqueen sooooooo far from a perfect bodied yoga bunny here! But I want a functional, strong flexible body as I head into my sixth decade,a body I can live in without pain. I’m trying to give it my best shot 🤩

Thank you @Yogachick it’s very easy to assume that everyone on these types of threads are the perfect bodied yoga bunnies so I really appreciate you sharing your story! Yes numb/weak left foot for me too makes me very wobbly, and struggling with perfection over practice is always a challenge in my head. I need to change those words around and write them down! PRACTICE OVER PERFECTION!

@Yogachick Flow - A 30 Day Yoga Journey?

I’ve found it on YouTube, so I’ll do one session every day try to do one session every day starting Wednesday.

She has lots of courses, all named this or that. Does it matter which ones you do? Or to do the 30 day flow then move onto any random ones is okay? There’s no specific order?

@NoCommentingFromNowOn personally I’m finishing Yoga with Adriene Flow, some are starting it. I find yoga brings the most benefit when I practice consistently, this thread is to help me( and others) be consistent. Can be used to be consistent with whatever you want though!
@calamariqueen I have a slipped disc somewhere near the base of my spine, to my shame can’t remember where. I’ve noticed significant weakness on the dodgy side, my balance is worse ,etc, still can’t feel my foot properly in that side, is partially numb. I use a LOT of support to help my weaker side. Come to the consistency party, whatever you want to be consistent with 🌻

I need in on this. Have just been diagnosed with an L4/L5 disc bulge in the mess that is my spine. Yoga has always helped me psychologically as well as physically but I lost a bit of love for it due to having so much weakness in my left leg/foot. I’m probably not up for following a program, but some accountability for stretching & strength building would definitely be good for me.

Are you doing a specific thing on YouTube, or just any yoga?
