Day 14: Spacious Hips

Feel great up for the challenge feel very energised today a nice transition to the hips so thanks

This practice was perfect - so helpful to loosening up my hips and strengthening my core!

Peter Fantastic! So good to hear your energy is building, and hips feeling good. Thank you for the feedback. Happy Monday!

Beth Thanks for the feedback. I love combining hip opening and core work to also open up the lower back... Have a great day!

Beautiful slow practice with focus on the breath.... I am first , last, outer, inner only that breath breathing human being . Thanks Shelley. Namaste

Hi Shelley, Thanks for the encouragement. I convinced my husband to join me and he is also loving the challenge. I have been working hard with my intention—my lower back is very tight right now—but this is really helping every day. Thanks. Looking forward to the rest of the challenge.

Glenford The breath that is breathing us all.... :). Namaste~

Nancy Glad you brought your hubby into the fold, how wonderful for you both to do this together... the daily practice will definitely help with tightness in low back, and just go at your own pace... perhaps spend a little extra time stretching your quads and hip flexors to help release the low back. Foam rolling will help, too!

This was probably one of my favorite so far in the challenge. I have never been able to go this deep in camel pose before (yeah!). I guess starting to feel the results of the commitment to be on the mat everyday.

Very nice practice. I've enjoyed the way the core work was intertwined with the other poses. I find it difficult to do Down Dog with the blocks. I feel shaky. I don't know if it's a matter of placement or height of the blocks. Do you have any advice? Thank you!
