A Public Apology
Dear Yoga,
I’m sorry.
I’m sorry I neglected you for so long.
I’m sorry I secretly thought you were really boring.
I’m sorry I didn’t close my eyes and sit still during meditation.
I’m sorry I didn’t think you could strengthen and tone my muscles.
I’m sorry I let that huge dude in the white pants who kept grunting with each pose, scare me away from class.
I’m sorry I was afraid to admit I didn’t like you, because it seemed like yet another blogger fail.
Thank you for taking me back. As it turns out, I just needed Jillian Michaels to help kick my butt into yoga-shape.

It’s not the 30-day Shred… but I’m pretty sure my body is going to be sore tomorrow.
Jillian Michaels: Yoga Meltdown” target=”_blank” rel=”noopener”>This dvd is great if you’re looking to get the benefits of yoga (like flexibility, balance, toned muscle) but can’t stand the “slow” parts (for me, that’s the sitting and breathing with my eyes closed.) There are two levels, 30 minutes each, and they do a great job of incorporating cardio with yoga movements. (Think lots of lunging and movement into poses.) I can get my yoga on without feeling like I’m slacking off. I didn’t think level 2 was that much more difficult than level 1, but its nice to have a variety.
Besides, I want to be able to take awkward, blurry pictures like this one, when I’m like 60.

I bookmarked the easy italian bake recipe!
And artic zero is so weird. How on earth do they do that?? It doesnt really satisfy my sweet cravings… I need the full fat stuff. And sugar.
Haha I have no idea how they do it, but I’m totally someone who eats the whole pint, so it works for me π haha
Hi, Courtney! Thank you for your support!
I LOVE this post, and the blog. Your picture is freakin’ amazing!
Must. Try. Yoga!!!!
I’ve only recently started to really appreciate yoga but I’m having a hard time finding time for it. When I get busy, it seems to be the first activity to fall by the wayside:S
hahaha. this is awesome. i feel the same way, i have been putting off trying a new yoga studio for weeks. i’m such a pansy. i love yoga and i feel so good when i do it. sometimes you just need that push… i’m still waiting… maybe i’ll go monday π

kim k… i’m confused…
I always thought it was a bit of a soft option – then did Body Balance and was aching after! I loved it though and you could feel how much good it would do… but I think that dude would have put me off too π
I love yoga. I do a little bit of it everyday and frequently go to hot yoga. I also love yoga videos, I need to try this one
I have gotta get back to yoga too!!!
This put a big smile on my face and warmed my inner yogi heart <3 <3

Which level did you end up doing? Looks like number two, and I LOVE LEVEL TWO! The wheel is my favorite move π I honestly hate yoga, unless its the Jillian Michaels DVD. I have the P90X yoga and SNORE. it’s so slow and it takes a lot of patience for me to actually finish it. Have a great weekend!! π
I’ve only tried level one but now I think I’ll HAVE to try level 2! And I felt the exact same way about the P90x yoga dvd!
