hangover yoga + a headstand

March 28, 2015 by Taryn Antoniou in healthy living, yoga

This morning was a struggle... to put it lightly.  Let's just say my alter ego was running a muck downtown last night.  Woof.

Today, at 3pm when I peeled myself from my bed, I thought it was appropriate to try out Adriene's Yoga for Hangovers.  Of course it was perfect and exactly what I needed.  I felt so good after that I tried out my first ever headstand.  Her Foundations of Yoga series is so great. When I've attempted headstands before I was doing it all wrong.  Putting actual pressure on my head, feeling frustrated, and not understanding why I couldn't get up into one.  She really dives in deep to the necessary steps to accomplish this position.  

When I first got to stage one of lifting off with my knees bent I was SO excited, so of course the second time I did it I filmed it.  I felt so good about it I extended my legs and held an actual headstand!  My form is definitely not great.  I need to work on getting that straight line from the crown of my head to the tips of my toes, but I was so proud of myself!  Especially on a day where I wanted to lay down and die for the most part.

So if you were out with me last night... or had a similar experience, I highly recommend Adriene's Yoga for Hangovers!  Namaste.
