Another sequence of my own today: I started with 3 sun salutations. I then did a flow on my right side: Warrior I, Warrior II, Reverse Warrior and extended side angle pose. I repeated on my left. Then, I did the flow again 3 times fast on each side. I would breathe in, go into pose, breathe out into different pose. From there, I did another standing flow. Tree pose then I grabbed ahold of my right big toe with my left hand and twisted back looking behind me, looking forward again I moved into Warrior III then Half Moon Pose then Standing Splits. I repeated on my left side. From there I went from Royal Dancer Pose into Eagle then repeated on my left. I stepped wide and bent forward into Wide Leg Forward Bend. I then stood up and squatted into Goddess Pose. I closed out sitting on my legs with a short meditation. Hooray for Friday! Namasté.

I did my own night practice to help me sleep. I started in Mountain Pose and focused my breath on my practice. I did a flow of Warrior I, II, extended side angle, bound side angle, then straightened my leg and put my forehead to my knee in a great stretch. I repeated on my left side. From there, I moved into a high lunge, then twisted side angle then half moon pose; repeating again on the other side. I sat down and did pigeon pose, putting my head to the floor for a deeper stretch. I then did monkey pose on each side putting my head to my knee. I sat and extended my legs out. I stretched to the left, right and then middle. I challenged my balance in crane pose before lying down to go into bridge pose. Then, from bridge, I put my head on the ground and extended up into wheel pose. I collapsed down slowly and rested in savasana. Namaste.

This afternoon, I wanted a short challenging sequence to wake me back up. I found the perfect upload taught by Neesha. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhxLJeqpMow&feature=g-u-u&context=G2797330FUAAAAAAAAAA

I did my own yoga sequence this morning. I started off with 3 sun salutations. From there I did a flow on one side then repeated on the other side: Warrior I, Warrior II, extended side angle, bound side angle, Warrior III, Standing Splits (I'd say I held each around 5 breaths). After finishing on the second side, I moved my feet together and hands up into Awkward Pose. From there I did a short flow from Tree Pose to Hand to Big Toe pose while twisting facing the back then repeated on other side. I then did Eagle Pose to end my standing practice. Down into bow pose, back into child's pose. Crane then headstand (which I held longer). Sitting with legs wide I stretched to the left, then to the right, then center. After, I relaxed in savasana. Namaste.

I actually forgot to post a couple of times when I did yoga...oops. Please forgive me. Today was the start of my cycle. Therefore, I did Neesha's Yoga for your Cycle again. I noticed in the past when I did this while on my period; it actually DID move faster through my body. Hooray for that! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mChI17yrOXM
