Congratulations Zozo!:) Keep practicing and you will become more steady and comfortable each time. Practicing putting the top of the head on the floor will prevent you from falling on your face but don't even worry about intermediate variations right now. They are only meant to challenge you...

LOL, I am positive you could do this! It's not as advanced as you think: 1. Get into the crow 2. Tip forward and place the top of the head on the floor 3. take a breath to get your balance before continuing, don't rush. 4. Bring the knees together off of the arms. See, you are already in a...

That's interesting Vee, because i have found beginners are most likely to "do a face plant" when they are looking down. I have found that when i instruct them to look at the floor towards the front of the mat they are able to get it faster. I recommend learning to fall as well: Practice...

I agree with Vee that it is much more comfortable to place the inside of your knees against the upper arms rather than attempting to rest the shins on the backs of your arms although i know some people who do crow with the knees right up against their armpits so play around with it and find what...

I agree with Afreet. I wouldn't get the Jeep because they are not known for their reliability or their resale value. For those same reasons i would never purchase a lot of other makes either but everyone has their preferences. You mentioned you are leasing so perhaps these points won't matter...

I received my latest purchase in the mail yesterday: Shiva Rea's Yoga Shakti:D Since i like her style, i had to get this one as most reviews say this is her best DVD. I purchased it even though i still haven't finished using the ones i bought through Collage.:o It looks amazing and i'm looking...

Today i decided to try the next Shiva Rea DVD: Daily Energy. I did the segment called "Earth" and added on the Core & Forward Bend bonus segments and ended with Savasana. So far, I Love this DVD and can't wait to try the rest.:D There are seven vinyasa's that you can mix and match with the...

Yesterday i did my own yoga practice in the gym at the office. I'm enjoying the mix of Shiva Rea yoga and my own practice since they challenge me in different ways. Shoegal: So sorry to hear about your family friend. Hopefully you will have no more bad news for a while. Michelle: Great job...

Checking in with my own yoga practice completed yesterday at the gym in my office. :D On Monday i did the following segments from Shiva Rea's yogini: Flow of Love (27 minutes), Flow of Beauty (16 minutes), savasana (3 minutes). I'm liking this DVD more now that i've used it a few times...

Thanks for the recommendation Kariev. I'm going to check out the book when i have the chance. There is something about Tara Stiles that makes her very likeable. That always comes through on all the YouTube clips i've seen of her.

Today i did the other segments from Shiva Rea Yogini: Flow of Love: 27 minute vinyasa including lunges with side bends , standing half splits , kneeling bow , parigasana forward bend. ending with camel and bow. This one has the same music from the beginner DVD but i'm not sure if something is...

Checking in with Shiva Rea's Yogini. Today i used the matrix and did the healing meditation, empowerment flow, and Savasana. Ana: I sent you a friend request too so you should see that you have two private messages from Phoenix and me. ;)

I just finished some segments from Shiva Rea's Yogini DVD. Instead of doing the whole thing i decided to use the matrix to select a couple of segments. Here is my summary of today's segments: I started with the 7 minute healing meditation for women: It's not really a meditation but it is...

I actually love plain greek yogurt but i'm glad you found something that works for you.

Oh no! That does sound stressful. I hope that it was really good icing at least. If you're going to consume that much sugar at least make it worth it!;) How did the rest of the party go?

Yesterday was a beautiful day but I ate way too much.:( By the end of the day i was feeling exhausted and lay down to take a nap and ended up waking up this morninng. I slept for almost 15 hours! I had taken 1/2 of an anti-histamine yesterday. They usually make me tired which is why i only took...

Canada is known as a "cultural mosaic". Diversity is celebrated and canadians enjoy the freedom to keep their culture and celebrate their heritage in a country where they can make a better life for themselves and their families. Of course there are some people who do not want to integrate or...

Thanks for sharing Vee. I have checked out my yoga online before but have never actually purchased any of the downloads.

This is a very interesting article on the "business" of yoga: http://krishna.org/yogis-behaving-badly/ I know there are still many devoted teachers out there, although they may be harder to find since they may not have celebrity students or appear on the cover of yoga journal.:p I have...

Congratulations on completing your treatment! I think the best thing you can do is just really listen to your body and do what feels right on any given day. Maybe start with light weights and see how you feel. I think everyone is so different so what may work for someone else may not...
