Sweat once a day! That is an understatement. Yesterday, I sweat enough for the week!
I wanted to take up something new for #cleanfifteen, so I signed up for two months of unlimited hot yoga. I've never done yoga before besides what my Nike Training App makes me do for 15 minutes every week. So yesterday was fun!
I signed in and the instructor told me that my goal for day one should be to just stay in the room for the full class. I walked in the studio, and there stood half a dozen naked people. Ok, they weren't naked but they were wearing a lot less clothing than me. As soon as I entered the studio I knew why minimal clothing was necessary.
I placed my towel on my mat and my lemon and cucumber infused water beside, and that was enough to make me dip sweat. They aren't kidding when they say 'hot' yoga. The class started and I am happy to inform you that I killed it! Sure, I was an obvious beginner in the back of the room, but I kept up and I was able to complete almost every pose.
I had this thought though, that someone should film me during a hot yoga session, because I am certain it would be a good laugh. Some of the poses I look so awkward in (and I'm not talking about the 'awkward pose') I had to look away from the front mirror. I just need to practice a bit more to work on my flexibility for some of the poses.
I think yoga is going to help me with clearing my mind when school gets hectic, keep positive and present, and sweat!
I will sweat once a day,
