Okay, here I go! Starting this 30 Days of Yoga Challenge – today. I have been a Sweat Pink ambassador for a few years now, and I am always so excited when there is something new, innovative, exciting, fun and challenging for me to join in on. Oh and if you want to join us- you can join here!
How long have I been doing yoga?
I have been doing yoga on a regular basis for 9 years and I totally love it. However, as a fitness expert who has never had any trouble creating her own workouts, it’s always really hard for me to practice yoga alone without an instructor. I really like to be “taught” yoga.
When I lived in Southern California for 8 years, I would take yoga at a studio and in the park nearly everyday. However, since moving to Austria (with a completely different work load and schedule) I now practice yoga 1x per week at the office in German and 1x per week at home using FitnessGlo or Yoga With Adriene. Yes, a whopping 2 times per week and it’s TOTALLY not enough. My body and mind will also tell you the same.
I found meditation and…
Two months ago I did a 21 day meditation challenge with Oprah Winfrey and Deepak Chopra that was absolutely amazing. Ever since then I take at least 5 minutes daily to quiet my mind, focus my intentions and get rid of all anxious and uncomfortable feelings.
I now want to combine my love for meditation and my love for yoga – but for 30 days straight! Can I do both? Of course…
My goals for this 30 Days of Yoga Challenge!
(I love this pic of me and some of my #SweatPink sisters having some yoga fun!)
1. Do minimum 5 minutes of yoga everyday for 30 days
2. Continue the yoga I am already doing
3. Discover new yoga instructors on YouTube
4. Start practicing on my own – and being okay with it
5. Meet some cool new friends in this community as well
6. Increase flexbility
