Beauty Blog: Health and Fitness
If you are a regular on my beauty blog you know every Sunday for the past three weeks I have been blogging about my personal goal to drop the rest of my pregnancy weight plus 5 pounds. I had a beautiful baby boy 8 weeks ago and am working on getting my body back. Each week I think of goals for myself, I write about the successes I have had along with the failures. Nothing in life is easy right? If it was I would be at the weight I wanted by now.
So today I am writing about yoga. I have done yoga in the past and enjoy the way I feel during and after. I also know there are great health benefits to yoga. I have been doing a lot of reading in the fitness and health magazines I get every month and it seems a theme in many of them for October is Yoga. Some have been short articles, some have been personal exercise stories, etc. This got me thinking. I want to add yoga to my weekly workout. Yet I am struggling with exactly how to do that. With three kids all different ages, a company to run, a non profit to run, and life I am not sure where yoga fits in. I think the only days I can do yog have to be the days when I run. I usually run Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday for 30 minutes. I could fit in yoga after that. This is where the problem arises. The gym that I now work out at only offers yoga once a day and not every day. This is a problem for me. And the times they offer yoga just don’t work. My schedule doesn’t allow me to do yoga at 10:30 am, noon or 7 pm. Those are the times and maybe one other time. Just not working for me. Then I thought about a yoga studio but that seems silly since I only plan to add yoga into my schedule one day a week. Plus the fees that some yoga studios charge is just like a gym membership. I have also thought about doing yoga at home. That is where you, my readers come into play.. I need your help and your advice.
Should I go to a yoga studio and pay the fees for yoga once a week? If so, where in Denver do you do your yoga?
Should I do yoga at home? If so what yoga videos or channel do you suggest? We have Direct TV so I would need a channel on Direct TV.
I look forward to feedback on this goal that I have for next week. I think that yoga will help center me and with three kids and a husband I am sure I need some of that. It will give me some peace in my day, it will also help strengthen and elongate my muscles.

Yoga can be practiced at home if you can have some privacy for a few minutes in the morning or evening hours… Going to a class and seek help from a teacher is a good option as well.. I don’t know about videos but you can go through a book titled ‘Patanjali Yoga’ by Vivekananda. I found it to be very helpful.
