I want to do yoga every day because I want to be a better person. Yoga makes me feel good inside and out, and I need to start taking care of myself.

How to do yoga every day
It made me
Full of energy!
 "Simple routine, but amazing results!"
How I did it: I picked a simple routine, that I could stick to, even if I was a little tired. I increased the intensity or took a yoga class, if I felt more energy. It's really not the exercise, that counts in yoga, although that's a nice benefit too. Most improtantly, yoga connects mind, body and spirit. It makes you feel calm, and gives you energy to pursue other goals. Lessons & tips: Find a good routine. You can use a video or a book, or a combination. You can also get unlimited membership in a yoga studio for a month, and go every single day. Do very simple postures maybe once or twice a week, if your muscles get tired, just to stretch out a bit and to keep the routine going. Resources: Raja Yoga book

My teacher path

I am becoming a yoga teacher, only 10 more lessons to go :) One of the most important aspects of that is being loyal to my own yoga practice. Also realizing that on bad days I can just read about yoga, and still be able to check this off.

It was great! I’m doing hour-long sessions of Tai Chi every Tuesday and Thursday morning. I feel like I actually have energy, which is great considering I’ve been really sick for the past week and sick just about a month now. It’s not quite yoga, but this is a great routine. I’ll probably be doing it every day once our Master teachers us all the routines. I’m the youngest person there by about thirty to thirty-five years.

I am doing 20-30 minutes 4-5 times a week. I would like to build up to doing 25 minutes in the morning, and 25 minutes in the evening.

So far so good. I try and do at least 20 minutes every night before bed. There is no better way to get over depression than yoga and meditation in my mind.
Water

I’ve found a great way to practice the standing poses…. in the pool! The tree pose is SO much easier once you have water buoying you up. You don’t feel the stretch as much, though.

Goodness, if only for the stretching

This is key for my physical well-being, my calves, everything. How I can delude myself to go a day without it, I will never know. But I really need it for soothing my muscles.
Let’s hope I also start taking more seriously the spiritual aspects of this. Maybe when I enroll into Kundalini yoga classes. Have to try out that new place that just opened up nearby.

This is very important, but somehow I don’t do it. As of today I will. Even if its just 5 minutes. I need to find a good routine as well – I will start to collect resources and tips to find a good, 20 minute routine to do every night, and will the try and increase it to 30 mins and 45 mins and then an hour every night. Im motivated!

When I say yoga I mean from the Yoga Sutras, “Yoga is the intentional stopping of the spontaneous fluctuations of the mind”
The benefits are unbelievable, I can’t even fathom why this isn’t taught in schools everywhere
