It’s a new year, a new day, and a new 30-day yoga challenge by Yoga With Adriene is here. I’ve tried to complete Adriene’s challenges several times over the years but last year was my first time actually succeeding. Blogging about it each day REALY helped me hold myself accountable, so we’re doing that again. Welcome to the new challenge, y’all! (I’m amped.) Oh, I got a little crafty and created several graphics to accompany the posts — juu liiike it? The illustration is based off of lerarelart’s on 123rf.com.

My workout before yoga consisted of a ton of squats and lunges, so today’s stretches were wel-comed! Today was pretty much a breeze on the yoga front, actually. One thing I noticed was that my balance isn’t as bad as I thought it was. I tried doing Tree Pose (I think that’s what it was) on my bare floor instead of my sturdy but cushiony workout mat, this time, and… voila! I experienced little to no swaying. That’s such a minor thing but it makes me happy. Lol 😊
