Hello, it's been a while :) 

I realize I never got round to doing a round up of my 30 day yoga challenge, seems so long ago now the past couple of weeks have been crazy busy for me! 

So the final week of the challenge was definitely the hardest, some of the poses definitely
baffled me somewhat! 

There are so many more challenging poses and routines, which in a way, is great as you build up to these over the duration of the challenge. Sometimes however, did find myself just watching the video clips and not having a go at all of the poses, this is mainly just because I was worried about either face planting the floor or not doing it correctly.

After completing the challenge I definitely would not hesitate to recommend it to anybody! Admittedly I haven't stuck to the routine of working out every day after the challenge like I had planned to, but at least now I have a bit of background knowledge if ever i fancy a spontaneous yoga sesh.

Make sure to check out Erin Motz's Twitter and Blog, shes always posting about tips and tricks if you're a bad yogi ;) 

And of course here is a link to the Do You Yoga website where it all began.

(When she remembers to actually write posts ok sorry worst blogger ever sorry)


P.S. Anyone else have this problem!? Hehe!

Eyyyyyy, Look who survived week 2 of the 30 Day Yoga Challenge (Just!) 


I have discovered that when it comes to any kind of 'balancing pose' ... I Suck. Pretty much. 
There have definitely been a few face planting occasions... ooops. (Why don't they make yoga mats more padded dammit!)

So far I think Day 13 has been my favourite. I am obsessed with any lower back/pelvis stretch. I think this is where having a job where i'm sat at my desk almost all day really takes it's toll. 

As far as content goes there is definitely something new to learn every day, despite these sessions being so short Erin definitely crams a lot in to them... A few times I have even gone through the video twice just because I felt it was over too quickly! I guess one of the biggest positives of this all being online, is you can pause, replay and rewind as many times as you need (You don't often get this benefit attending a regular yoga class!) 

I've had a sneak peak and seen a few clips of what's to come in the next few days of the challenge... Doing the splits.. and headstands!?! .... WHAT!? - This is where I die guys. 

Wish me luck!

P.S. What's you favourite Yoga Pose? - I'd love to know :)
I think mine is a Cobra then going into a Down Dog *mmmmm stretchy* 

Namaste Guys!

Hey there!

So, i'm not entirely sure what to call this post. Bucket list? Things to do before i'm 100?
Ehh. I'm just gonna go with someday I would really love to do all these things.
I'm not going to set a timescale on any of these. I just like knowing that someday they are definitely a maybe. 

• I've been wanting to do this one for a while... Someday I want to have a pretty dramatic haircut and donate a large portion of my hair to The Little Princess Trust .They specialise in making wigs for children going through cancer treatments. My hair is pretty long so hopefully one day it will make one little princess very happy.
  
•  I want to volunteer for a wildlife and animal protection charity in Thailand or South America (or both!) I'm thinking something along the lines of helping with Elephants and Orangutans? I'm not going to be fussy, I just think it would be so amazing!
  
• For an entire year (maybe next year?) I want to take a photo every single day of something that has made me smile. No matter how little.
  
• Perfect the ultimate cupcake recipe
  
• Someday I really want the opportunity to help someone who went through or is going through anxieties, and 'mental health problems' at school. Having personal experience in this area I think I owe something back to the people who helped me. (I guess this is a story for another day, but it is something I would really like to do)
  
• Now this one may seem a little small and silly but I reaaalllyy want to learn how to play an instrument... properly. I have a ukulele that has been sitting in my room for over a year just gathering dust. Maybe that's where I will start.
  
• Okay. This is one that I have wanted to do for years and years and years. My lovely friend Maeghan who I grew up with in the UK moved back home to Canada quite some time ago now. Someday i'm gonna go and visit her and her awesome family over in Nova Scotia. Watch out Canada, i'm coming for you!
  
•  Staying on the same sort of theme, some day I am going to go and visit my amazing pen friend, Devika. She lives in India and earlier this year we were lucky enough to meet up and have lunch in London. Seeing we as we met through Twitter and our mutual love of Harry Potter and cupcakes, I think that's pretty awesome.
  
• I want to learn a new language!
  
• I'd like to adopt an animal. It might not be my first or second.. But someday I'd like to give a better home to an animal who maybe hasn't had a lot of love in it's life before.
  
• I've always wanted to live somewhere (even just for a little while) near the seaside.

• Someday I want to hold hands with my boyfriend and watch something like the northern lights or a solar eclipse or a meteor shower or something along those lines.
  
• My last one for now is that someday I would like to have a job where I really genuinely look forward to Mondays.

I guess that's it for now.
If you were wondering what I look like while i'm writing this post... this is it. 

If I fits, I sits
