Wannabe Yogi

About 4 months ago, I started taking yoga once or twice a week. I'm hooked. The stretching and strength poses bring awareness of what my body is capable of. The relaxation part is pretty good too. Yesterday during lunchtime yoga, I conquered a new pose. One that was once so easy (age 5) but is waaaaay more difficult at 23. The inversion.
Ok, so I wasn't in paradise, I had a spot, and my body most certainly doesn't look like that. But damn I'm proud of myself.
