YOGA TIP
I've been thinking a lot lately about those "magic yoga moments." I confess that I feel like a failure in terms of being a yoga mom most of the time. But every now and then, something clicks... and there's a moment between my daughter and me. And it's magical.
Like the moment when she spontaneously taught me a new breath she’d made up at bedtime to help her sleep. Or when she grabbed our yoga cards and made a new yoga pose game, incorporating three poses to make up a new pose. Or when she told me to be "take a deep breath" when she could see me getting frantic.
So, I'm curious, what are some of YOUR magic yoga moments?
Because we all know that we keep practicing yoga to feel those magic moments in our own practice. Like when you suddenly cry in Savasana or are inspired by a new idea when in a Warrior Pose.
My magic yoga moment this week was when my daughter got out our third deck of yoga poses and just started trying out the more challenging poses—totally unprovoked and completely on her own. And then she asked me to take a picture of her (see below). I was stunned. She tried each of the poses in the whole deck!
