Рецепт Day 3: Ohmmmmmm
I haven’t done yoga in MONTHS! I decided that I was going to do it this morning. I realize in my old age (ok. I’m not old) that to get into shape, I need to be more flexible. While I may want to be like gymnast flexible, I have to be honest with myself. I’ll just be happy to not have creaky bones until I’m at least a hot 80 year old chickie.
My return to yoga was rough this morning. Positions that I would have no problem doing in the past felt like I had never done them before. Would you believe it? I was WINDED. Weird, when you’re just doing exercises on the floor. Oops. I said exercise. I should say MOVES.
Last night, I went to the 92nd St. Y (here in NYC) to see the wonderfully inspiring Victoria Moran (Main Street Vegan) speak about weight loss and being plant powered. Her tips and storytelling really connected with me, as I jotted notes with takeaways of her talk. I wish I had time to run up and say HI, having met her in August at the Vegan Mainstream Professionals Bootcamp, but there’s always next time, right?
As you know, I’ve not been healthiest vegan in the world, but I feel like there’s this huge change coming into my life. It’s going to make myself a better person from the inside and out.
Cheers to that with my green breakfast smoothie!
