Don't forget the ones where you shake slightly as you start a balancing stretch and have the split second of "I'm about to fall over" panic before stabilising 😂😂
The way I initially learned was to be as Zen and focused as possible like meditation, but now I've realized a bit of play is ok, we quickly center ourselves again. Much like in meditation, the mind will wander, but we gently bring it back to the breath. It's ok to fall, laugh, cry, fidget, adjust, forget etc. It's all part of connecting to ourselves.
You forgot: being disturbed by family members/ pets, remembering something really important you have to remember to you pause everything to write it on your today list and if you are outside: insects being annoying
omg thank you for showing this!! i feel like i'm always fidgeting and adjusting things, and it makes me think i'm not doing yoga "the right way" (meaning, in a serene and relaxed way)
So relatable! I think that’s why I struggle to get my public classes underway. I love my personal private practice so much! I love the laughs that I have or when I get to let an old emotion go and cry it out on the mat! Or even to just take a break in the middle of a sequence because I don’t have the energy.
You are really fun and interactive. Hope more people find your channel. I wobble a lot. I love practicing at home by myself so I don’t have to hold in my gas😂
I'm sure because as I follow along with your routines im doing the same thing...fixing my bun top, unrolling the top of my pants, noticing the reoccurring callous on my toe and sometimes falling out when my body just doesn't want to find balance in one particular pose or another 😆
We are all the same 😅 I think it’s good to show it so no one thinks they are doing anything wrong if they need to re adjust their clothing or re do their hair.
you are epically adorable & very sweet for sharing this. i take medication that effects my memory and can't even remember the sun salutation sequence. it's frustrating but i try to grant myself grace
I cycle through having a thought, telling myself it's time to be present in the moment, getting distracted again, trying to reground, getting distracted, and then realizing I've been in savasana for 10 minutes.
Lmao oh so true! There has a been a time [or10] where I get carried away on 1 side and have to stop and ask my class if they were paying attention to what we did lol 😮
Fr so glad I'm not alone in this, I always feel like my mind should be completely at ease and the instructor always makes it seem like yoga is the only thing existing at that moment, but I'm just constantly distracted by random stuff
Thanks for sharing. When I was doing one of your yoga sessions this morning I was wondering if you had any bloopers. It's like you read my mind! 🤣 Thanks for helping me feel human too. 🥳
I’m glad I’m not alone. I usually have to prepare myself to practice around two needy cats that think yoga is play time. My hair has to be in a tight bun at the base of my neck because for some reason a braid or a messy bun is seen as a threat and must be killed.
Aahaha I remember those days 😅 my puppy used to be obsessed with my ponytail and I used to have to tuck it down the back of my t-shirt so he wouldn't attack.
Oh my god me too, any kind of cloth brushing my neck or loose clothing tapping any other part of my body freaks me out. And I always have to have a hair wrapped because any stray hair totally messes up my balance😂, I see people practicing and all this baggy clothing with their hair in their face and I have no idea how they do it
Im happy i saw this sometimes i get so caught up in how it 'should look' that i lose touch with its purpose. Thank you for sharing your humanity with us. Hopefully others will also see this as a reminder to be gentle with yourself in your practice ❤❤❤
This is me, I think I am gonna do a sequence and end up winging it in the end lol but I love how with yoga you can feel your body so transitioning and distractions are not detrimental, I have actually learned easier ways to do a pose just from this mind glitch alone lol
I think it’s awesome that you help people with specific issues in short videos on tik tok or reels w/e. I realized I hadn’t been popping up with my legs to get my left leg through from downward dog to lunge like I do with my right. 25 Seconds and it fixed an issue that made me grrrrrrr….. and you realize that your sequences and skill level may seem unattainable or even intimidating so I’m glad you do these so much.
