Yoga in the Park

Matt and I went for a walk today and we came upon a lovely avenue with cherry blossom coverage, and I felt the need to do some yoga.

I like having pictures of myself as I learn challenging poses so I can actually see my alignment and what I need to work on (flexibility in the lower back, melting the heart forward to bring my shoulders over my wrists, rooting down through my feet to help straighten the legs more).

I'm learning that backbends encourage playfulness and foster courage; with that in mind, I felt a little more light-hearted and empowered as we went about our day.

Just thought I'd give you a peek at my process!
