This Dog’s Paws are Tired!

Had a great class that helped relieve some of the soreness and tension in my neck. I did, however, realize that my hands are pretty exhausted too. Even when using sharp, good quality shears and saws the ole paws’ll get tired after a lot of work. Mine are pretty well done in. Down dog was [...]

Garden Work & Shiloh Walk

I had two hands-on gardening sessions today, so I got a lot of walking around, squatting, lifting and pruning in during that time. My upper body is a bit sore. I’m sort of torn about how to balance yoga in these days. I know I need it to keep my mental balance and to keep [...]

Sunday Yoga & the Garden

Arms and shoulders are sore from doing so much hands-on gardening training. I’ve been doing about 2-6 hours of pruning & or digging a day for the last week. Add a few chatauranga to that & you’ll find me with a tight neck and shoulders. Today I did go to yoga, which was excellent. I [...]

Hardest Yoga in Weeks

Got back to my past-usual Thursday night yoga. Different teach who I hadn’t studied with prior to last night. Her pace was slow, but the poses and overall class was difficult. I needed the challenge after being mostly off my practice for most of February. Even had to face my nemesis twisting triangle. Good overall [...]
