Come see some pics - I'm a YOGI!

in life •  7 years ago 

Hey there! I'm a yogi...

But I wont start this post with a lie and say I'm here for the spiritual journey, and the relaxation and stuff... Yeah, that too, but what really got me loving yoga is: the acrobatics.  

Being upside down, and balance myself in my arms while my feet is floating, the flying sensation... thats where i get my relaxation from :) 

I was never a pacific person, neither spiritual. But with yoga I learned to be patient, and that things wont go as we want, whenever we want. Learning to wait was the greatest thing in my life, even tho some days I feel down on energy, hopeless, we all do... But isnt that balance? One day we're down, the next we wake up to a new day full of new possibilities and chances! One day we eat healthy, and the next day we're having fries with beer, so what? 

And thats what happens with our bodies in yoga, the self awareness to combine movement and alignment, balance and strength and be in a position that we practiced for days, months... being able to respect when its just not possible yet to do what you want, and try again tomorrow. 

What I wanna say is: If you don't do it for one reason, do it for another, but do it. I didnt do yoga for spiritual reasons, but I do it for the acrobatics and the spiritual part comes slowly along in the background :p 


Hugs,

Bea!

The scenery in the 2nd picture is amazing. I'd just sit underneath the waterfall all day haha.

It was my first time visiting a waterfall, its incredible! ❤️

sometimes the most spiritual way to live is by being yourself and having fun… So good job

I totally agree! Whatever makes us happy, as long as we respect others, is valid :)

Amazing, it's so relaxing just seeing you doing the figures. I bet it requires a bit of pratice before, otherwize, bang, where are my feet, oh yes, near my head, lol. Have a very beautiful day ! :-)

Hahaha yeah, I still cant do a lot of the poses i wanted to, but its coming slowly :D Have a great day you too!

Great post! I understand what you are saying about doing stuff for a different reason. I haven't done any kind of sport or acrobatics until I was 20, but then I discovered the hula hoop and staff and suddenly I was in shape! You gave me inspiration to write about it, thank you.

Thank you! Do you got some pics doing the hula hoop? I used to do it just for fun when i was a kid :D Glad i could inspire you! xx

That's a whole new level of physical conditioning I need to get on. You make it look easy.

Looks easy, right? I see women doing much more harder stuff and I'm like: "whaaatt??" haha

Haha, the female yogi is a 'yogini.' ;) Beautiful tattoos!

Thank you! ; )

You're most welcome! ;)
