“When you reach for the stars, you are reaching for the farthest thing out there. When you reach deep into yourself, it is the same thing, but in the opposite direction. If you reach in both directions, you will have spanned the universe.” 💫 ~ Vera Nazarian 💗 . . Tomorrow is Day 2️⃣ of the #Love4Splits #yogachallenge and I am so amazed by the beautiful warrior 3 poses from our participants. Absolutely stunning! 😍 . . The next #asana is #Skandasana or #sidelunge. In the Ashtanga practice, one leg is behind the head and in a forward fold. My outer hips weren’t warmed up enough, and I found it much safer to practice ahimsa in the side lunge. ☺️ . . Be sure to check out the amazing variations from my co-hosts, and i can’t wait to see your posts! 😁🕉🧘🏻‍♀️🗽✌🏻🌿 . . Your hosts: @mikaila_nyc @jennyg2bfit @yoga_garage @ritaayoga .

The #asana is Eka Pada Koundinyasana II, named after the Sage Koundinya or #flyingsplits. This #armbalance took coming to my mat a few times a day to find peace with it. ☺️ Additionally, doing this in front of stairs was really nerve wracking as well! Whew!! 😅 . .

Here we go! 🤸🏻‍♀️ Tomorrow is officially the start of the #Love4Splits #yogachallenge and Day 1 is Virabhadrasana III or #warrior3 pose. This #asana not only builds balance by standing on one leg, and strengthens the core when leaning forward. The pose also opens the hip flexors to prepare for front splits and standing splits. 😁 . . Be sure to check out the beautiful variations from my co-hosts, and let’s see your posts! 😁🕉🧘🏻‍♀️🗽✌🏻🌿 . Your hosts: @mikaila_nyc @jennyg2bfit @yoga_garage @ritaayoga .

The struggle is real! 😂 . . Tomorrow is Day 4️⃣ of the #Love4Splits #yogachallenge and the #asana is Svarga Dvijasana or #birdofparadise pose. After a few attempts to bring my leg closer to my torso in this pose I finally accepted it for what it was. Perfection in one’s #yogapractice is based on perception and shouldn’t be weighed on anyone’s abilities. Balance has been an issue for me for decades, and peace in a posture is more significant than so-called perfection. 😌 . . Where you are in your practice is beautiful and sacred, so relish in the time spent with it. 💜 . . .
