CENTER 3: getting ourselves on the mat one day at a time in March

Hi everyone. This is the new thread for yoga with Adrienne devotees trying to do a daily practice based on Center ( or Move, or Home, or True…). A friendly thread to hang out and boost each other.

Just checking in. I've kept up with Centre this month and an amazed I've managed to keep more or less daily yoga up. I sometimes miss a day if busy or spending time doing other exercise but double up on running rest days to catch up.
I've no idea if I'm getting better, I think I am then the balancing in the last two days - so wobbly!
I try to practice more or less same time every day, at about 7am. Back in Jan it was black outside, through Feb it was starting to be sunrise as I practiced and now it's is daylight. It has been nice to notice the changes out of my window as I practice the "soft gaze" into the garden (and trying to not worry what my back neighbours think I'm doing if they can see me!).

Day 7 OG 30 days. Side planks at the end were on my forearms as my wrists aren’t strong enough for that hold. Sweaty one today,a nice flow which I love. On one side I managed to actually touch my knee to my elbow in the plank to knee thing! I wanted to cheer!

Center Day 15. Better than some of the more recent ones.

Ooh. I did Move day 29 today. It included side planks which I did without a kickstand - very pleased.

Shinyandnew2022 · 15/03/2023 22:38

Day 15 done here too - I enjoyed it!

@Shinyandnew2022 thank you! I am really pleased!

Yogachick · 16/03/2023 07:03

@ScottishBeth well done that’s a huge achievement and shows the progress you’ve made!👏👏👏

hoochycrone · 16/03/2023 09:37

Oh yes, so lovely to hear all this 💕
We have done so well just to keep going.
Center day 16 my tummy muscles are definitely stronger than they were, though that's a low bar 😂

Feel I'm totally letting the side ( and myself ) down but not yoga today, some osteopath prescribed exercises for my shoulder following more acupuncture last night!

Just concentrate on getting better be @Sooverthemill.

I’ve not done anything since the 13th - just being lazy though, no excuses.

notanicepersonapparently · 17/03/2023 17:56

Thank you @Sooverthemill for keeping on checking in. I hope it won’t be too long before you are able to get back on the mat.
day 17 of Center for me today. I didn’t feel like yoga today and I didn’t enjoy all those eagle arm circles in the slightest, but I’m giving myself a pat on the back for turning up.

Shinyandnew2022 · 17/03/2023 19:35

@Sooverthemill you have kept us all going for so long nothing at all to feel guilty about!
I hope the osteopath work helps.

Day 17 center here - I didn't enjoy all the eagle arms work at all either but as always feel so glad I did it ?

Day 2?7 of move yesterday

Shocked myself by moving into horizon for the first time ever

Into and straight out in shock

OopNorfDahnSarf · 18/03/2023 10:03

Hi everyone. Day 18 Center. Short and fairly gentle with lots of leg work. Feeling a bit guilty that I skipped day 17 eagle arms. But that was the first day I have missed in March so far.

hoochycrone · 18/03/2023 12:39

Day 18 center. Really did not feel like it today, so tired.
But, it was ok. Those eagle arm squats were hilarious. I did look like a sumo wrestler Blush
@Sooverthemill just be gentle with yourself and get better soon Flowers

Shinyandnew2022 · 18/03/2023 22:53

Day 18 Center today . I enjoyed it -even the eagle arms were ok today! I am trying to embrace just doing the days session and not trying to pick ones I remember enjoying before .

notanicepersonapparently · 19/03/2023 18:00

Center day19. I did get a bit bored with Center the first time round and todays was a reminder why. I was very un-engaged.

Shinyandnew2022 · 19/03/2023 22:38

Center day 19 in the books ! I enjoyed it -
Mainly as I was treated to knocking on heavens door at the end.

This is amazing @midgemadgemodge .
I have had a could of moments like this with DFD and yogic squat but then find I can't do it next time ! It's so exciting when it happens though - well done

I’m still going Sooverthemill. Day 20 of center was a lovely relaxing one. Used my new yoga mat from lululemon which arrived today.

Rummikub · 20/03/2023 21:52

Must get back to it. Fallen off the wagon.

OopNorfDahnSarf · 20/03/2023 22:19

Quick 10 minute session today

Buttalapasta · 21/03/2023 06:18

Hello @Sooverthemill . I'm still going although I agree Center seems a bit lacklustre at the moment. Day 78 today! I'm determined to get to 100 this time!
