Well dear readers it is the last Tuesday of March and believe it or not a month since I started the Spring into Yoga Challenge. Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun? 
What have I learned? Well, firstly that whilst Janu Sirsasana and Bhada Konasana may never be my favourite poses, the thought of them is far worse than the pose itself, especially now I have learned to let go! Secondly that me and Dhanurasana are never going to be friends, but more importantly I’ve learned that it’s OK to not be friends with certain postures. I’m not suggesting giving up. I’m not suggesting saying to yourself “oh I’ll never do this” and never try again, but eventually every yogi(ni) is going to find a posture that is really hard, or that they may never be able to do without modification. And that is what’s OK. To accept and love our bodies exactly as they are right now!
With that in mind, and inspired by this post over at Sal’s Already Pretty Blog, I give you five things that are awesome about my body. Yes, I may have health issues and back issues and a dodgy hip but I also have an amazing body that lives every single day.
I would love it if you would join me with your list of five, either in the comments or as a post on your own blog with a link for us all in the comments.
1. My body has core muscles of steel. Seriously. I can hold Navasana for sooo long without shaking!
2. My body has a cute ass. I know this isn’t a reason to do yoga, but the yoga butt is a nice side effect!
3. My body cycles me miles and miles every week, I can feel myself get stronger every single day and I’m starting to not miss having a car because of this.
4. My body may not be able to do handstands anymore but it has a lot of fun trying!
5. My body houses my brain which is smart, silly and geeky in equal measures.
