LOVE this practice.  Hits every spot -- and only 20 minutes so no excuse for missing it.  THank you! 

Awesome, Kristi! So happy to hear that you enjoyed this (your) morning practice. Thank you for being here and sharing. Enjoy your day! Love, Alana

Hi Alana. This is great. I can do it even if I'm getting up really early without much sleep. The routine makes it easy for me to add in some quick push-ups and leg raises, breakfast and out the door. Now I just have to make it consistent 

Good morning, Andrew! Sounds like you've got a great morning routine happening. Yes, consistency makes a difference... a wise teacher once said, don't ask yourself if you FEEL like practicing (meditation), just DO IT. You always feel better afterwards. Enjoy! Warmly, Alana

Hi Alana. This is very true. One hears the "just do it" slogan in many variations all the time. However, If you take the time to ask yourself if "you feel like it" the answer is quite often No, at least for me. That is a major stumbling block.  I'm up at 5am and I my first thought is generally, I just don't feel like doing this, so all too often I don't.  I never feel physically or mentally better when I miss a practice just because I don't feel like it. It's a huge hurdle for me to get over. Anyhow, I'm going to go for the month of September and break that habit and get that question out of my head. Don't ask yourself if you FEEL like practicing, just DO IT Thanks

Exactly Andrew. I think it's a huge hurdle for just about everyone! The simple fact that you are aware of this allows for the possibility of change. Just stay close to the feeling AFTER your practice...and don't think, just practice! Keep us posted on how the month of September is going for you. You've got THIS! xoA

Well, 23 out of 30 days. Not perfect, but getting on with October

That's pretty fantastic, Andrew! How are you feeling with a consistent yoga practice? Enjoy! Alana 

Being consistent really makes a difference.  I'm finding that I want to do more for even more improvement. I have other regular exercise I do at night which is not yoga but I'm trying to fit in practices from your "wait for it" series. I'm only doing that once or twice a week. If I'm doing regular calisthenic type stuff like pushups and situps I'm trying to do it with a yoga style,like a vinyasa style pushup. I think that's the right terminology. Anyhow, all is good

All is good, indeed Andrew. We're happy to have you here with us! So glad to hear you're getting value from incorporating both vinyasa-style and yin/restorative practices in with your other exercises.
