YWA April Calendar: ROOT

[CBDB]

Here is our virtual mat for YWA April.

Just a very quick note to drop our April Yoga mat. I’m looking forward to a bit of a mindful practice. I’m about to go to my father’s funeral 😭😭😭 and staying in that memory space, reminiscing about family and childhood. So I might just chose some mindful sessions over the next month and I’ll take it slow, while I weather life‘s emotional turbulences.

So here’s our April YWA calendar, called ROOT.

YWA April, here our YWA LINKS:

And if you are just joining us, big WELCOME to you and any new Virtual Workout Buddies! The daily practice of YWA calendar is perfect to get started with Yoga.

And feel free to - as Adriene says - “find what feels good”, meaning if your knees feel too sensitive, amend that Child’s Pose. And if you find full planks are the stuff of nightmares, rather do half planks than full ones. Do whatever feels right to get the maximum enjoyment from these daily sessions. And definitely get creative with props.

Here is a hopefully helpful post about YOGA props.

Upwards, crow-wards and down dog-wards another months practice!

Sorry to hear about your Dad. Thank you for managing to share and post in the midst of all you're going through. My Dad died last October.. yoga and finding more space has helped me a lot. .. running has been variable! I also found a book by Thich Nhat Hahn called No Fear No Death very helpful. It was recommended by my yoga teacher and as you mentioned mindfulness I thought I'd mention it.

Take care Janex

Thank you so much. Running helps me to clear my headspace. Yoga allows me to channel focus on memories more. So somehow both give me a great balance when in that phase of remembrance.

Will look up the book. Thank you!

[Betj in reply to CBDB]

Indeed they both give something so helpful & a good balance. I just didnt have the energy for running for a while!! Now it comes and goes somewhat!
