#yogahollis . . Props are our friends! You are NOT a wuss if you use props! Drop the Ego - use props when needed. So often, I see students not wanting to use props in their practice who desperately should. It’s as if their thought process is that props make them feel weak or inferior. 🤷🏾♂️ There’s soo much information and feedback to obtain from using props. Try using props, they can help your practice. Can you describe in the comment section below what’s the purpose of using the strap in this practice? . . .

Boat ride on a chair 🚣♂️ Navasana (boat pose) with leg levers to amp up eccentric contraction (the motion of an active muscle while it is lengthening under load) for abdominal strength. Added ankle weights per @carrieowerko’s recommendation and inspiration 💪🔥 time to load up practice, yeah!

I always thought taking the toes would “ease” the core effort in #navasana - wrong! It just gives more balance to draw those thighs and belly together with bandha! 🔥 .

To someone, I am every single thing and to another, I am nothing. Who's right or does it even matter? I question every day what or who I am to myself. Question my intentions, progressions and movements...I wonder if I'm stagnant or found a new version of comfortable. Some days are so much harder than others but i know there's something out there for me that i haven't touched yet. Or maybe I crossed it but it's not the right time. In the meantime, I'll continue putting in the work because I owe myself that much. 21 Yoga Day challenge: Day 2 and 3: Tree pose & Boat pose #runningfatchef #fatrunner #yoga #yogi #boatpose #treepose #treeposevariation #boatposevariation #yogaprogress #yogapractice #yogaeverydamnday #fatyoga #yogachallenge #yogainspiration #yogaofcolor ##namaste #meditation #21yogadays #selfie #celfie #yogaselfie #hellobeautiful #loveyourself #trusttheprocess (at Bedford–Stuyvesant, Brooklyn)
I am grateful to live in a country where I have so many options about my choice of shelter and where my family and I want to live. My husband and I have been on a journey for several years now to build a home where we can incite his mom to love with us. We have so many choices and options it sometimes becomes overwhelming and that’s not necessarily a bad problem to have. I told him yesterday it isn’t the about there house but it’s about the home. Home is where your family is, a house is just a house. Still finding ways to make this photoshoot @jenbellyoga and I had to work for more Alo Challenges 💗💙🤍 Alo Yoga Challenge Announcement!!! #AloForGratitude Nov 23-30 What is gratitude?
