Hi there my dearies and welcome back to another Wednesday fashion post.
As we move along in life, we learn to seek what’s good instead of what’s perfect. We learn that when we fall short, we’re better for having tried and that life is a process, a journey, and not about always having it right.
Enter the challenging, frustrating, and unglamorous CHAIR POSE of vinyasa yoga, one of the most challenging yoga poses and something I’ve been struggling with for years and still can’t master too well. Sigh.
A very popular vinyasa yoga pose, the chair pose asks that you face forwards with your legs at shoulder’s distance, bend your knees, sit down with your tushie as low as possible, and hold your arms up and forwards.
Now, if your quadriceps and calves lack flexibility (like mine), crouching down low and looking like you actually are in a chair ain’t happening, folks.
Here I am attempting the chair yoga pose on the coast of Spain. My sweetie took these photos of me, foregoing some nap time on the beach. Love you honey!
Although I’ve got a ways to go, I’m far better at the chair pose than a year ago. Isn’t that what life’s all about. Setting goals, working towards them, getting better, and enjoying the process of it all?
Although my yoga pose might have come up short, my Onzie yoga clothes were, in fact, perfect! Onzie offers a creative range of super yoga outfits for us mamas. Here, I matched a pink multicolored bra with a pretty cross-back with purple, blue and pink flashy leggings.
In my busy life as a mom, I wear Onzie beyond the yoga studio and know you all will too! So I’m crossing my fingers for one of you mamas to win our giveaway below.
Thanks so much for reading and make sure to check back in next week for another fashion post.
Gratefully,
Melissa
