I highly recommend looking for ways to incorporate even short yoga routines into your daily life. It can greatly help with muscle aches and with your ability to focus and sleep.

My ideal is an hour each morning, but I do strive at least to do ten minutes if I can't get that in.

You can do easy simple things even at your computer. Imagine you are making a golden halo with the top of your head, in a clockwise direction. Then reverse.

Our kitchen has become a staging area for the things I'm selling on ebay so now I've run out of yoga space smile. Time to work on that. I miss doing the yoga!
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 12/14/12 04:02 AM
Hurrah! I have now cleared out the kitchen area again. The old computer we were working on on the kitchen table has been donated to the local senior center, along with a large box full of old keyboards, power supplies, and so on. So that is done!

I've sold most of our old receivers / stereo equipment on ebay. The few remaining items are listed on Amazon and ebay and are going into the spare room until they get bought.

There's just a few items left in the kitchen to move to their proper homes, and then I can actually vacuum and clean the floor! And I can do yoga again. Hurrah!

I haven't gotten back into a daily routine yet, but I am getting better at least. I'd say it's probably every three days right now. My wake-sleep schedule is fairly odd so it depends what time of day I wake up, and how much is on my to-do list.

Chime in if you do any sort of yoga! I'd love to hear what poses you enjoy.
Posted By: jilly Re: Daily Yoga - 01/03/13 06:19 AM
Every three days is pretty good. I've been neglecting my desire to do yoga for over a year now. frown

Right now I will do a stretch pose! I am in bed, but there are still stretches I can do....

okay, I just did a handful. That felt nice on my lower back.
Posted By: jilly Re: Daily Yoga - 01/03/13 10:38 PM
Going to do a few Yoga in Bed stretches again, right now!

I think my biggest issue with all this is lack of accountability. NO one cares or notices if I do anything, except myself. As it turns out, that isn't enough motivation for me. frown
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 01/19/13 01:22 AM
Dear Jilly -

Feel free to post in the forum, if you enjoy external motivation!

I have gotten into a nice routine where I do about an hour of yoga each morning. I definitely feel more awake and energized afterwards. Also I notice my flexibility and strength improving each day, which is nice. It's a built in motivator, since I want to see if I can stretch just a bit further each time.

Maybe try that? Set a fun goal for yourself?
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 01/25/13 01:31 AM
I've been doing yoga for about an hour each morning and enjoy it immensely.

Here's my routine I do. If anybody knows the names to poses, please let me know! I did my best to figure out what they are.

Lisa's Daily Yoga Routine

standing side twist -
rotate with arms hanging loose so they flop like coat sleeves on body - 20 rotations

stretch up and back

hang my arms down to touch the ground. Then fold my arms to deepen the stretch. Nod five times. Shake my head five times.

standing crescent moon -
odd, this seems to have several names. The one where you stand tall and curve your body left or right. So someone standing in front of you sees a letter C (or reverse C)

Tree pose / Vrksasana -
I love this pose. I do it for a while on one foot, then relax for a moment on both, then for a while on the other foot.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sun Salutation Series / Surya Namaskar -

OK this is a sequence in and of itself. I do the whole set two times, once with each leg leading. My set includes:

Stretch up and back

stretch down to the ground

Raise back to diagonally point up, hands on knees

Stretch down to ground again

Put one leg back

Put other leg back to Downward Facing Dog - Adho Mukha Svanasana
- "walk the dog" - release tension in one leg while pressing into other, and switching

Shifting weight forward into plank

Dropping hips down into cobra / Bhujangasana

shifting weight back into downward facing dog

bringing foot forward between hands to what I think of as a hurdler's stretch

stand back up

hand motion 1 - interlace fingers loosely before chest pointing forward, rotate them down, towards chest, up. Bring both hands up to sky and out wide to either wide, then down and back to chest. Do twice.

hand motion 2 - my yoga teacher called this "heart opening namaste". Have both hands at chest, pointing towards teach other, thumbs towards the chest. Sweep them forward and out to the sides. Then rotate the thumbs to point up and bring the hands back in a wide swoop forward then in to the chest.

repeat.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Warrior 2 sequence / Virabhadrasana II

Start in Warrior 2 - but up in a triangle. Settle down into warrior 2. Back up to triangle. Do this three times to really settle down into the warrior 2 pose.

Turn both hands palm-up, imagine you're holding a giant ball, and rotate back so your front hand is towards the sky and your back one is down.

Lean the forward fore-arm down on your forward leg. Rotate the back arm forward in a big circle three times. End with it pointing forward.

Look down, then right, then up

Rotate that "free arm" (the one not on your leg) up and back so it's loose. At the same time, rotate the on-leg arm so it's pointing straight up. Your legs are now a triangle.

Lace your hands behind you and stretch them down, as you lean forward.

repeat.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now back to simpler things smile.

Warrior 1 on both sides.

Next, a back stretch. Stand with feet warrior-1 width apart but both pointing towards left side of mat. For 15 seconds simply stand, then for 15 seconds fold to touch ground.

Another back stretch. Simply squat with hands around knees for 30 seconds.

cat-cow / Marjaryasana
for 10 rounds (happens to be a back stretch too but is a normal part of yoga)

extended child pose / Garbhasana
30 seconds. Also happens to be a back stretch

rolling cat-cow
for 10 rounds. Start in extended child pose, roll up to cow, arch to cat, fall back into extended child pose.

extended child pose / garbhasana
yes again smile

cross-legged stretch
the final back stretch. Interlace fingers and reach for sky for 30 seconds

seated spinal twist / half lord of the fishes / Ardha Matsyendrasana
both sides. I love this one.

hurdler's stretch
have one leg forward, the other bent back. First lean forward over forward knee. Then lay back flat on mat. Both sides.

laying spinal twist
lay on back. fold right knee, use left hand to press it towards the left. Stretch right arm out straight right, look right. Switch.

laying goddess pose
put feet soles together with legs laying flat on floor out to either side. Put palms together above head, on floor.

bridge pose / Setu Bandha Sarvangasana
Hold the bridge, then slowly lower the spine down vertebrae by vertebrae to the mat. I love this part.

Shavasana
simply let everything go

cross-legged with hands palm-up on knees
- with crown of head make five halos clockwise, then counter-clockwise
- with nose, trace an orange first clockwise, then counter-clockwise

hands to heart

namaste

A lovely yoga session - wow, much different doing it mid-day after my shake! I felt much stronger and integrated with the poses.

A lovely #yoga session on my back porch - but last night's massive rainstorm seems to have swept away the cute tree frog. I can't find him! I hope he's all right. I did see many dragonflies.

I had a great yoga class yesterday that was much harder than i am used to. No real rests and no savasana. I missed the savasana more than i thought i would.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 08/31/13 04:04 PM
Jilly -

It is great that you tried a yoga class. We learn something new from every new instructor.

I agree that I greatly enjoy savasana and would miss it if it was completely missing from a session. I always have a savasana at the end of my sessions.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 09/01/13 02:47 PM
Had a lovely #yoga session - the cute tree frog is gone again, but it rained last night. Maybe he simply has somewhere dry he goes to.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 01/29/14 09:12 AM
A lovely #yoga session. I haven't done a full one in a while. Plus the birds were flying steadily at the feeder. A lovely start to the day.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 02/01/14 02:17 PM
I love my morning yoga sessions. My spine and hamstrings feel so much better afterwards. They crave the stretching. I had a relaxing one this morning in the kitchen, where I can see the bird feeders while I move. It's a great start to the day.

Do you guys do yoga?
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 02/03/14 12:05 PM

Did my morning yoga routine today after a 2 week break. It felt SO good to stretch. My spine and neck absolutely needed it. My neck was incredibly crinkly.

What yoga have you done recently?

#Yoga today reminded me why it's important to stretch daily. When I don't, my muscles tighten back up noticeably. A little each day helps!

Had a lovely yoga session. I contemplated why our society sometimes can judge people as "ugly" or "not ugly" - is this healthy? Why do we feel the need to denigrate someone for their looks, which is typically beyond their control? Is that like denigrating someone for their skin color, also beyond their control? I feel we each, in our own way, have beauty. We each look different and that is wonderful. I love portraits that bring out that beauty in each person. Great-grandparents can be beautiful. Toddlers can be beautiful. We can each be beautiful. What do you think?

A lovely yoga session today - my first in over a week. The cruise ship wanted me to do yoga right in the center of the busy gym. Nope smile. I'd be quite shy about doing cat-cow poses while beefy guys were lifting weights all around me. Call me old fashioned smile.

A lovely yoga session while watching the birds mob our feeders. Another two feet of snow is falling. The birds are hungry! #yoga

A wonderful #yoga session today. The sun is shining, the snow is melting, the birds are chirping their fool heads off. Joyful smile.

A lovely #yoga session this morning. Pondered the power of words to hurt and to help others. It's amazing how potent word choice can be.

A number of you ask about my daily yoga. Here's my free yoga book with the entire routine. Feel free to ask if you have any questions!

Free Yoga Book - Yoga for Stress-Relief and Forgiveness

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 04/04/15 07:04 PM
A reader of my free yoga book asked if yoga should hurt. Here's my response.


Yoga should NOT hurt. Yoga is about gentle stretching and holding. If something hurts, you should stop. It could be you are pushing your body too hard for its current strengths. It could be something about the specific position simply does not work well given an injury or other situation with your body. There should never be pain. There should be gentle stretching.

For me, yoga is intensely pleasurable. It feels wonderful to press into the spinal twists – as if I’m receiving an expert massage. Lowering down from bridge, vertebrae by vertebrae, is sheer bliss. I’ve heard from many other yoga practitioners that they feel the same way. So that is something to look forward to, if you’re just getting started!
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 04/06/15 10:55 AM
Enjoyed my #yoga session this morning - I actually did it at dawn! We'll see how long this new sleep cycle lasts, where I'm awake during daylight hours smile. If you're not doing a bit of yoga each day, I highly recommend it. It infuses you with energy and makes your body feel lovely.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 04/08/15 07:40 AM
Did you know yoga reduces cortisol (stress hormone) levels in your body - which can significantly reduce visceral fat levels?

Do some yoga today - even if it's just some gentle twists!
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 04/13/15 09:29 AM
A lovely yoga session this morning with sun shining and birds chirping. Now a large to-do list - will take it one step at a time! Namaste!

I was doing well with yoga until about two weeks ago when I got very busy and stopped. Now my body aches. Time to start up again!
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 05/30/15 05:07 AM
I just did my morning yoga routine for the first time in two weeks. I'd been too busy with 'important projects' to take the time - but my neck, arm, and back had become so achy as a result! The pain was then impacting my ability to work on things and stay focused. I definitely need to do yoga daily to stay pain-free and to be at my best for all I want to get done.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 05/31/15 06:11 PM
I enjoyed my hour of gentle yoga - it definitely helps with my various aches and pains. I need to stay with this each day! Have you yogaed today?
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 06/01/15 08:41 PM
I tried to do my yoga routine but this lower back muscle pain is getting worse. It seems to be whatever muscle goes along the lower ribs in the lower right back area. If I try to bend over it has a shooting pain and loses its ability to hold my torso up, so I fold over, which can toss me over smile. Not good. I've contacted my doc to set up an appt. Hopefully it heals on its own. I really don't want it to be something requiring surgery to reattach!

Weather is absolutely beautiful - did a full yoga session on the back porch with Juliet the cat. And hummingbirds. And phoebes smile.

Gorgeous outdoor yoga session - just the right dappled shade and friendly hummingbirds. Breathe in. Release. And a new day begins.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 08/04/15 04:50 PM
A wonderful yoga session in the back yard. Hummingbirds, chickadees, woodpeckers, even a tiny American toad kept me company. Blissful. I highly recommend even ten minutes of yoga each day to reduce stress and build focus.

Lovely morning yoga session. So nice to do the spinal twists and get the back stretched out. Now to work on photos from yesterday's gigs.
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 10/05/15 07:53 PM
For today's yoga session I was still testing out my new Gaiam yoga travel mat. Sad to say, it's awful. Thin, slippery, and short. I used to love Gaiam, too. Maybe they're too big now and have lost track of their quality control.

Still, I'm grateful I can find time for yoga each day and those spinal twists always feel wonderful! #namaste

Lovely yoga session by the Christmas tree & Julie the Cat snoozing on the futon. So relaxing. And my new candle! I got it at the BVAA holiday party's gift swap.

Interestingly, even the candle website doesn't describe the scent very clearly. They say: this intense, intoxicating fragrance is aromatic and woody. That's a bit vague smile.

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 12/17/15 07:26 PM
A relaxing yoga session by the Christmas tree with candle, kitty, gentle rain, and SoundScapes on cable. Every day is a blessing. Even if you only have five minutes, make some time for serenity #namaste

My daily yoga session always begins with turning in place, arms gently flapping. Left, right. Left, right. Calming. If you don't do any other yoga today, just do that for a minute. Let it soothe you.

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 12/19/15 08:47 PM
Julie the cat helped me with my yoga by weaving amongst my limbs. What a good kitty, to liven up my exercise smile.

Do a little yoga each day. Even five minutes makes a difference in energy levels and calm focus!

Great yoga session today. Julie the cat helped. It's so much easier to do tree pose on land vs on a moving Cruise Ship!

I had a lovely yoga session today with Juliet the cat snoozing in the sunny window. Peaceful and calm. I need that focus - for the past week Chrome has been crashing more and more to the point that it's become unusable. After reinstalling, rebooting, reinstalling, and disabling every app and extension, I am giving up and converting all my web activity to IE. It's a substantial effort but I've run out of options. Deep breaths smile. #Namaste

I enjoyed a peaceful yoga session on my back porch; the first one since the glass-table-breaking incident. We finally found the time yesterday to clear off the whole deck, power wash it all, and ensure all the glass remnants were taken care of. Hurrah! I love doing yoga there and am glad to get back into that routine. #namaste

I just finished a serene yoga session in my back yard. There were sparrows sipping water right next to me. Chickadees swooping inches from my head. A caterpillar inching across my toes. A baby jumping spider peering in curiosity at me from my hand. Flowers. Butterflies. So joyful. #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 06/15/16 04:41 PM
I also did two minutes with my weighted hula hoop. I love hula hooping! I wanted to do more but I haven't used it in a while and one has to be cautious about ramping up too quickly with these. It can lead to a sore stomach. If you don't have a hula hoop I highly recommend it! It's fun and just so good for your waist / hips / stomach.

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 06/27/16 03:59 PM
Awesome yoga session today with daylilies in bloom, butterflies & dragonflies. Every day's a blessing. If you haven't done any yoga today, take just five minutes to do some! Stand and stretch. Do gentle head rolls. Every little bit helps! #Namaste

Good morning! I just finished a beautiful yoga session surrounded by the morning glories and other flowers on my back deck.

A beautiful yoga routine on my back porch! This is a titmouse but there have also been cardinal babies with their dad, bunches of titmice, chickadees, downies, nuthatches, robins splashing in the birdbath, and a baby hummingbird who keeps coming over to stare at me. This is great for yoga but it's going to make writing a real challenge smile. #namaste

Enjoyed a wonderful yoga session on the back porch with Juliet at my side. So much to be grateful for. Then checked CNN and saw this article about a couple being stabbed simply because they were interracial. It's a reminder that some people are still mired in hate. In a mentality of "us vs them." Every day is an opportunity to show that we all deserve compassion, no matter who we are or where we come from.

I did my yoga under the umbrella today to stay in the shade. Here's my view for meditation. Serene. Julie snoozed away. Apparently the birds know she's deaf. A pair of titmice landed on the railing right above her, looked down at her, and sang their little hearts out. Maybe they were testing her. She just snoozed on. #namaste

I'll note that I really wanted a green umbrella but Bob bought the red one because it was cheaper. So now he's promised me we can paint it green. We tried bleaching it first. You can see that that didn't work very well smile.

Autumn is definitely here - it was too chilly for me to do back porch yoga. I moved inside instead. It was great to stretch! Join me in a few simple ones to get those muscles moving. I'm still happy from my delightful Sunday with my son and his girlfriend at King Richard's Faire. #Namaste

Morning yoga time. Join me in gentle stretches. Even just doing a vertical twist, a simple half-moon pose, and forward bend helps the spine gently articulate in each of the six directions. It's important for back health. #namaste

Morning yoga time! Usually Juliet helps me but she's been hit with yet another UTI, poor kitty. We had to run her to the vet last night (right in the middle of my final loading of medieval book 14 onto Amazon, so sheer chaos smile ). She's back on antibiotics & pain meds. This time we're doing a full culture & bloodwork to narrow it down better. Hopefully she feels better soon! It's rough being 17 1/2 years old but she hangs in there! #Namaste

I stayed up all night cramming to get things done; now I'm past 24 hours awake. If I do yoga I'll fall asleep the moment I do a floor pose. smile I need to last 2 more hours to get a few more critical tasks done, then I'm going to sleep. Even if I wake up super-early tomorrow, that'll be fine and get me in proper shape for Indie Author Day from 10-3 on Saturday! #namaste

JulieTheCat helped me with yoga this morning - she slowly explored the yard and I did yoga poses as I walked with her. Beautiful foliage, too. Now I've brought her in and she is continually letting me know she deserves to be outside again smile. But lots to do today.

I adored my yoga session. The stretching makes my body feel so good and healthy. However, I have still have not developed powers of mind-control or ESP that a Facebook contact warns me will happen. Can anyone help? Because if someone can really develop mind-control or ESP just by stretching, there are literally millions of dollars we can claim.

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 02/04/17 05:39 PM
My daily yoga practice with my daffodil bulbs encourages me to focus and stretch. Every day is a new opportunity for change. I love how their roots intertwine and support each other. #Namaste

I recently finished my daily yoga session. Find a way to move each hour! It can be a walking meditation to bring mindfulness. Those little moments add up and matter! #namaste

One idea is to set a timer on your computer or cell phone to beep and remind you.

Only brief yoga today - this past week has been hectic and it gets far far worse this coming week. I'll get through as much of my to-do list as I can, but there are lots of "Urgent!" things on there. I barely got that cover song video finalized and loaded in time! And now Mused is due tonight!! And the Art-Poetry show goes live next Wed! AAaaagh! smile #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 02/24/17 04:20 PM
I just finished my morning yoga routine - it was warm enough to do it on the back porch! In February in Massachusetts! This is insanity smile. And I'm not even talking "a nip in the air" warm. I'm talking t-shirt and shorts weather. Time to send another round of emails to my reps. Sure, it's nice for today - but it bodes very poorly for the planet as a whole, which I care about. #climatechange

My morning yoga with my daffodils. It was a little nippy out today, but still, this weather for February in Massachusetts is unseasonably warm. We need to care for our planet. We only have one. #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 02/27/17 06:34 PM
Happy Monday everyone! I just woke up & enjoyed my morning yoga routine. My daffodils are blooming in my pots, I'm energized, and now I've got a massive amount of tasks on my to-do list. One step at a time. First off, check up on all my various contact systems to ensure I'm up to date everywhere. What are you guys up to today? #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/04/17 06:24 PM
I enjoyed a lovely yoga practice today. It helps me breathe and focus to prepare for the day ahead. Someone asked how I get so much done each week. The answer is that all seven days I begin with yoga, process my to-do list all day, and end with meditation. Every day. Have you done any yoga today? #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/06/17 05:01 PM
Daily yoga feels so nice! Do a few stretches. A few toe-touches. A few spinal twists. Even just some head rotations help. Imagine a halo floating over your head and trace it clockwise with your crown five times. Then counter-clockwise. Yoga eases your body, brings fresh energy, and renews focus. #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/07/17 04:49 PM
Daily yoga can be simple. Just stand and gently twist from side to side. This stretches the spine and helps it do its job better. Give it a try! #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/08/17 05:13 PM
Daily yoga brings a wealth of healthy benefits. It improves balance, reduces blood pressure, and regulates body weight. Even five minutes makes a difference. #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/09/17 05:22 PM
Good morning, everyone! Have you done any yoga yet? I love the twists. Aim for even short yoga actions every day. Invest in you! #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/11/17 04:58 PM
Even short moments of yoga and meditation can help. You can reduce your stress up to 40% through quick, easy pauses. Invest in yourself. #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/13/17 03:49 PM
Daily yoga time! Stand and do some gentle spinal twists. Heck, do a few seated halo head circles. Every little bit adds up. #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/14/17 06:29 PM
Daily #yoga is better for your body than waiting once a week to do a 'full session'. Do even short amounts of yoga each day! Have you done your yoga today? Even just a head circle? #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/15/17 08:38 PM
Are you mindful when you exercise or do yoga? Studies find that mindfulness leads to satisfaction, meaning you keep at it. Did you do your yoga yet today? Even short amounts add up! #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/17/17 03:49 PM
No time for an hour of yoga? That's OK. Just do 12 minutes today. It makes a difference. Take a break and spinal twist! #Namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/20/17 05:54 PM
Happy Spring Equinox everyone! My yoga today was wonderful. It was inside due to the snow. I can't wait until I can get out for walks again. Have you ever tried "Forest Bathing"? It's shown to reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and raise energy levels!

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/22/17 04:37 PM
I loved my morning yoga - Bob's band has TWO gigs on Saturday so I definitely need to work on my flexibility and endurance for dancing! I can't quite do this move yet smile. Maybe soon! Did you do any yoga today? Even short, simple moves add up! Do a neck roll!

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 03/23/17 04:47 PM
Daily yoga is a great way to keep your body strong & healthy. It's free, fun preventative medicine which helps you avoid falls, aches, sprains, and even colds! Did you do your yoga yet today? #namaste

Did you do your yoga today? Even sitting up straight & doing head-circles is a great start! Lifting your spine helps depression & memory

I love my hula hoop - and that means I use it nearly every day. If you find an exercise you love it makes all the difference. What exercise or activity have you done today? How about some yoga? It's great for your spine smile. #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 04/01/17 05:33 PM
My daily yoga was lovely today - but the warned-of snowstorm never came! We got maybe an inch. Here in Massachusetts that doesn't even count. April Fools Day maybe? Still, April is here! #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 05/06/17 04:56 PM
Morning yoga on the back porch was sunny & serene - but had a vast number of tiny little Gypsy Moth caterpillars. Uh oh. Trees, watch out! It looks like it's going to be a bad year for anything green and leafy ...

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 05/19/17 07:50 PM
I loved my back porch yoga with the birds & breezes. I then helped two friends with their books, and I'm now reviewing audio versions of my own books. It's delightful to hear them read and brought to life! There are such talented narrators out there smile. #namaste What are you guys up to today?



Here's one of my audio books - I adore the way the narrator reads this! Let me know if you'd like to hear this one for free - I have a few free tokens.

I finally was able to do most of my regular yoga routine; my poison ivy foot is slowly healing up. It felt nice to stretch and twist. Have you done any yoga today? How about some nice head-halos while you read webpages smile. #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 07/04/17 03:34 PM
Happy Independence Day, everyone! I could do nearly my full yoga routine today - the foot is slowly but surely healing. I'm grateful to be able to spend the 4th of July in less pain. Give thanks each day for one's blessings - we all have so much! What are you grateful for today?

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 07/06/17 03:53 PM
I enjoyed my full yoga routine plus some hula hoop time afterwards. My foot is continuing to heal! Hurrah! Now I'm sorting through the photos from my wonderful trip to the Peabody Museum of Native American history on Wed. Just all sorts of amazing items there. Highly recommended. I can use this material for two separate books - my book on Native American traditions and my next Art Theft Mystery book. Heck, plus I can add more details to my Wyoming series which features a pair of Native American heroines. #namaste

I enjoyed a great yoga session today - my poison ivy foot gets better daily! I can pretty much do all my normal poses now, although it's not quite as bendy as the left foot for downward dog and such. That's ok smile. It's healing. Did you know that even football players use yoga for flexibility? Add a little bit of yoga to today's routine! smile

A delightful yoga session plus HulaHoop during the rain, and my new mouse is in! I can finally work with graphics again! I adore my Darkfield mouse but it lasts about 3 years with my heavy use. It was now past that point and was acting *really* flaky. Amazon Prime Day came to the rescue! #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 07/14/17 02:43 PM
I enjoyed a great yoga session while the cardinals & chipmunks explored the drizzly outside world. Plus tons of fun with my Hula Hoop. I love to hoop! I'm trying to figure out what songs match my hooping BPM. So far the songs have been either a tad too slow or too fast. I'll narrow it down! #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 07/25/17 01:16 PM
I enjoyed a lovely yoga session. My injured foot is still not quite right, but I found ways to modify poses to accommodate that. Every day can make a difference. If you're having a challenge sticking with your exercise, try adding music! #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 07/26/17 03:40 PM
Lovely yoga session. I'm still dealing with the foot injury, but every day helps a little bit. I need to keep the rest of me healthy. You probably knew that the act of frowning actively makes you less happy, but did you know that slouching also triggers the mind to be less happy? Find ways to sit up straighter! #namaste

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 07/27/17 04:17 PM
I had a lovely yoga session modified for my injured foot. Many people deal with far more challenging issues. I'm grateful it's just one foot and that, slowly but surely, it's healing. #namaste

What are you grateful for today?

With all the uncertainty going on with our health care, it's wise for each of us to do the very best we can to ensure our own health, especially if it's wholly free to do so. Have you done any stretches today? Try some simple head rotations!

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 07/30/17 04:00 PM
I tried rolling cat-cow for first time since my toe injury. My toe did ok! Yoga reminds us to be mindful and compassionate to ourselves. Every day is a blessing, just to be here. If my toe never learns to curl again, that's all right. I'm just grateful it's healing as best it can. What are you grateful for today? #namaste

I had a great yoga session today. Did you know that yoga helps buffer against DNA mutations? Some practitioners remain healthy despite having genetic abnormalities. The Icahn Institute did a large study where they tested people for genetic issues. They found quite a number of people who seemed perfectly healthy but it turns out they had DNA mutations. It appears their yoga routine and healthy eating buffered them against their mutations "activating" and causing the disease. #namaste

I had a lovely yoga session today plus some hula hoop. I have lots of writing & art stuff to do today - yoga helps me prepare for both! What are you up to today? #namaste

I had a gentle yoga session today. I'm still not risking plank (i.e. push-up) pose but I can do the rest of my routine, including hula-hooping. I'm doing my best to be gentle with the injured toe. I'm hoping my toenail doesn't fall off, maybe it can heal? The dark area has been slowly expanding over the past two weeks but seems to have stalled, and it almost seems as if it's getting lighter in the center. Is that a good sign? Or do I have to resign myself to losing the nail? #namaste

Today's yoga is a bit late - I got 3 hours of sleep, woke up very early for an art event, came home, and slept another 4 hours. Then, finally, yoga! I've been home two days and did my full yoga each day on nice, solid ground. Well, it sort of feels like it's moving a bit but that will pass soon smile. Tree pose is a bit tricky ... but not as tricky as it was on the ship! Did you do your yoga yet today? Try a few head circles! #namaste

Morning yoga time. I'm just back from a week in Myrtle Beach, SC - a gorgeous region. I did my yoga each morning on the porch. We were so fortunate that the storm only gently touched us on the last day. #namaste

Morning yoga was lovely on the back porch. The pepper plants are tinging red. Autumn is approaching! I love the seasons here. If you haven't done any yoga yet today, do some simple head circles. Every bit helps! #namaste

Today was my first yoga session with the kittens. They were fascinated and helped out with various poses by testing my balance. By the end I had soothed them into a snuggly sleep. #Namaste

Morning yoga time. The two kittens helped by crawling in, under, and alongside poses. They have mastered the spinal twist. Did you get any stretching in yet today? Do some neck rolls! No kittens needed! smile

Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 12/22/17 09:23 PM
My kittens Zuzu and Felix helped with my daily yoga session today. They especially like walking beneath me when I'm doing plank pose and sticking their tail all over my face. This helps me practice my focus and breathing. Have you done any yoga yet today? Take five minutes to stretch! #namaste

Do Yoga Every Day - You don't have to do a long two-hour yoga practice every day to get benefits. If your schedule is busy, just make time for ten minutes. Fifteen minutes. Even a few minutes of gentle yoga reaps wonderful benefits for your health. It impacts your immune system, your spine health, your levels of stress hormones in your system, and so much more.

My yoga practice today was fairly brief, as I have some pressing tasks to get done before end-of-day. Even that short time invested repays in dividends as everything else I do hums along at a solid clip.

Did you do any yoga today? Even a brief head roll? Make the time to invest in yourself!

On the days I can't do a full yoga routine, I definitely strive to do at least something short. I need to stay in the rhythm so it stays in my daily life.

Do you do yoga daily? Or at all?
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 04/18/19 02:43 AM
I fell out of the habit of doing daily yoga, because my yoga area got full of clutter. And now - literally - I've gained 20 pounds in the past year. Time to get back into practice!!
Posted By: Lisa Shea Re: Daily Yoga - 11/11/21 04:54 AM
You would think that with the pandemic I'd do more yoga, but the yoga area got cluttered with stuff. I need to get it clean, so I can get back into a daily yoga routine!
