Great yoga practice. Went in feeling kind of yucky…a little neck tweak…a little sneezy…a little thinking I might be getting sick. Ended up having a great practice and feeling 100% when I left.

Had my best Upward Bow ever. Was able to really push up and really backbend. Arms straight & strong. Feet forward and knees not bowing.

Also felt like my chatauranga is back on track. In my past few practices I’ve felt my breath out of sync and my arms not quite up to the task. I had been modifying to avoid injury, but today I was truly a plank and my chatauranga (follow prior link to see great photo of form for lowering in chatauranga/how it differs from a push up) was consistent and good!

Also managed full lotus on both sides (meaning right foot on top once; left foot on top once) and in that bind lifted into a lotus handstand.

Good all around. Must keep this up!
