My Yoga Diary – Tootsies
filed in Yoga Diary on Oct.24, 2009
Okay people. I’ve hit a MAJOR milestone! After just a couple months or practicing yoga…I can FINALLY….for the first time in my LIFE….ready for this? Drumroll please?…..touch frickin my toes! Yes! Oh! and might I add…withOUT bending my knees, screaming out in excruciating pain, without people laughing at me and without farting!
Well, actually the farting part is questionable, but hey….I’m not screaming and farting!
And what’s even better is that I can FINALLY do the Downward Dog pose without looking like I’m doing some kind of crab crawl from gym class.
IN CELEBRATION of this magical wondrous feat…..next week I’m going to hold a contest/giveaway!
Ya’ll come back now…ya hear?

Oh Sheila, You crack me up. Good for you getting all flexible like that. The last time I was able to touch my toes without bending my knees was sometime in the 80s… the same decade I was born!

You’re my hero! Yoga is not.
Maybe you’ll inspire me, though, and I’ll master it some day… maybe!

AWESOME, SHEILA!!!
I am wondering, do we get to see you out there doing yoga in the snow too? And will you do a spring pose by the tulips as well?? Might as well have the fours seasons of your progress!

Yay! I’ve been to a couple of yoga classes and it’s just too much for me. I spend the whole time trying not to fart. I wind up tenser than when I went in.

The day I could do this was a big one for me too, I didn’t even realize I couldn’t do it until I could.
Love the shots of your progress! Keep at it.
