Resolution: Yoga

Here I am, a quarter of the way through the year, and I am excited to say I have crossed another resolution off my list.

Today, I took my first Yoga class. Technically, it would be my second, but the first was back in college and I barely remember it.



The gym I joined offers multiple Yoga classes and I tried out Vinyasa Yoga today. It was longer than expected at 75 minutes, but very relaxing. I did better stretching wise than I expected of myself, but the breathing was definitely the most challenging for me. I've always had trouble taking long deep breaths through my nose, given a deviated septum. I've been working really hard at concentrating on my breathing when running and I think Yoga might actually be a good way to help me improve.

While I enjoyed the class at the gym, there aren't many times they offer during the week that work with my schedule. Can anyone recommend a good home video for daily yoga lasting no more than 30 minutes or so?

  1. I found some great yoga videos On Demand. If you have Xfinity it is under sports and fitness (they are all free). I also downloaded a few from Itunes that are 15-25 min each.
