day 10: 45 minutes - ashtanga
i took a long car trip with my girls yesterday - 3 hours out and 3 hours back. i need something solid to start my day and this worked. i felt comfortable because i knew the flow and i could challenge myself in places where i have gained strength and ease up on myself where my muscles felt tight.
i did learn that i made a mistake about terminology. apparently, pranayama means breath and vinyasa means tying the breath to motion. so there's breathing and breathing in coordination with movement.
day 11: 20 minutes - hip openers
after driving for 6 hours yesterday, i have a pretty killer pinch behind one of my shoulder blades and 10 sun salutations might just knock me out for the day. rather than aggravate my shoulder, i centered my practice on my hips this morning. i feel soft and open and good.
happy weekend practice!
