This heatwave is brutal!
It's so hot I miss complaining about the cold!
It's enough ♨️

Yep yep yep, still a winter person ❄️
You?

At least if I play at the wall I can get the coolness of the plasterboard. Strongly recommend wall practice for the next couple of weeks 🤣

If cats are woman's best friends
Dogs are man's best friends
Walls must be Yogi's best friends

Don't you agree?

My love affair with the wall continues…

Flying pigeon pose

This is a toughie one for me, I always feel awkward and ungracious while performing Eka Pada Galavasana.

But let's try to break it down:

▪️Work at your wrist, hands and shoulders
▪️Prepare the pose on the floor with
Ardha kapotasana use blocks if needed
▪️Open the hips with 4 shaped poses
▪️Chair pose with 4 shape is also a great prep, try to shift the body weight back and forth for an extra challenge

The first lesson in Folding forward Your Body Safe

The first lesson in Folding forward Your Body Safely 101 is:

STOP THE COMPETITIVE ATTITUDE

When you round your spine forward, the back edges of the vertebrae move apart, the front edges toward one another, and the disc gets wedged in the posterior direction.

This could potentially cause the discs to bulge backwards in the bad direction, possibly bulging into the nerves in the spinal canal, resulting in one-sided pain with symptoms even traveling down the leg.

Bend the knees if necessary.

Here a demonstration of how you can modify Padangushtasana
Padahastasana
Paschimottanasana

Sunday Handstand practice using a new gadget from

Sunday Handstand practice using a new gadget from @pro.handstand

When its inventor, yogi and athlete @heddiesyoga asked me if I wanted to test drive his invention I was super excited. Although this is a prototype I’m super impressed with what I’ve achieved in the last couple of days of practice.

I have been struggling with handstands for years, and the lockdown last year didn't help at all. I couldn't see my teacher and by myself I had little progress.

Heddies was super helpful and gave me some pointers as to how to achieve it using @pro.handstand

At the moment I am working at straightening my arms and developing stamina. The tool helps me to engage the triceps, core and shifts the angle of the pelvis creating a better alignment.

Plus playing with shapes is so much fun.

I still have a lot of work in front of me, but I can only say that @pro.handstand is a brilliant companion of my journey.

Saturday is Spa day (at home of course 😁)

Between my yoga practice, teaching online and in person, taking workshops, walking 10k daily and life in general I rarely give a chance to my muscles to recover.

So, when @revitalogica contacted me and asked me to test their wireless massager I couldn't say no. I have been using Flex Relief massager for over 10 days now and I have to admit, it is life changing. My muscles recover at a quicker pace and my back pain is almost gone.

Relief™ Wireless Massager combines the benefits of

✔ TENS (Tension and pain relief)

✔ EMS (Enhance muscle strength, Muscle relax)

✔ Heat Therapy (Increase blood flow to muscles)

I strongly recommend this product.

How to deepen Full Bow Pose 🏹

Special guest Mr Sweetface 🐈

I love experimenting with Props and lately I started using the foam roller and straps together.
So effective and so much fun.
And I can definitely see improvements on my Padangushta Dhanurasana.

At the moment I am in bed trying to recover from the COVID-19 vaccine second jab. I couldn't sleep all night and I got high fever. But, vaccine saves life and I am proud I did it.
