Got two good tips from Jeannie today...although I didn't really need to her be giving me a hard time about drinking water between postures which she did to annoying level...but whatever. The tips were in Standing Bow to really grab the kicking foot and when you do that, notice what your opposing shoulder does. The goal being you need to relax that should BACK so you can twist. It makes a big difference with balance and depth when you focus on really squeezing your foot. Second tip was something that's said all the time in Standing Head to Knee but she took it a step further...when grabbing your food with the interlocked, tight grip, notice your PALMS. The palms can really acted as a support so that you don't lose the grip. Just thinking about the whole hand during the pose did help keep the grip. This has been a rough week and it's not even close to being over but yoga helped. Thank you, yoga.
