Day 1 - Vinyasa Flow Total body - YogaFix30
Ready to Launch?!?
"Today is the first day of the rest of your life!"
Welcome to day 1! I'm overjoyed that you've decided to get addicted...to yoga! I encourage you to repeat each day's affirmation at least 10 times out loud if you can, or in your mind if you feel like there are too many people around (I totally get it!). All of our affirmations are from Louise Hay's classic book, "You Can Heal Your Life." Here is today's:
"I give myself permission to be all that I can be and I deserve the VERY best in life."
Additional "homework:" Get a journal or notebook that you can use throughout this 30 days. Begin by writing down EVERYTHING that you're grateful for from 2017. On the next page, create a list of EVERYTHING that you want to have, do and be in 2018. Be as specific as possible. If you want to change careers, increase your income, find love, move into a new house, be sure to describe it as clearly as you can as if you already have it. For example, you could write something like, "I live in a home in the country with 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. It has gorgeous hardwood floors in every room and majestic views of Mount Shasta. There's a lake nearby where we spend lots of time swimming. I have more than enough money to pay for my new home and I'm so grateful that I no longer have financial worries." Create your ideal life and read it often! The clearer you are, the more the universe knows what to bring you! Have fun with this!
Love,
Lesley
PS If you feel weird about saying the daily affirmations, don't worry. I felt the same way. Just keep at it and you'll be amazed!
Yoga Fix 30 - Day 3 - Yoga Twists for detox & Digestion
The Amount of Work is the Same
"The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves happy. The amount of work is the same."
-Carlos Castaneda
It's day 3 already! If you started on the first of January, today is the 3rd and it's also Stone's birthday! Happy 11th birthday Stone!
Did you know (according to Psychology Today) that it takes more energy to be angry than it does to be happy?? I read somewhere that it takes more muscles and effort to frown than it does to smile! So, making ourselves miserable is probably a bit more work than it is to make ourselves happy. Spend your energy wisely today!
Today's homework is to repeat and write today's affirmation at least 10 times and to place it around your home, in your car or at work so you can be reminded! Here it is:
"I now discover how wonderful I am. I choose to love and enjoy myself."
If you find that you're having a difficult time not being angry, or maintaining happiness, try the meditation below. It works great for me!
Love,
Lesley
Yoga Fix 30 - Day 4 - Vinyasa Flow to Strengthen Shoulders and Arms
Is it what you look at? Or what you see?
"Be careful how you interpret the world. It is like that"
-Eric Heller
Remember: you are the architect of your life. You're the author of your story and the director of your screenplay. You decide where to go, what to do, how to feel and most importantly, how to interpret to your circumstances.
It's day 4! Are you starting to feel the addiction take hold? I hope so! Here is today's affirmation. Remember to recite and/or write it at least 10 times:
"I am safe in the universe, and all life loves and supports me."
Additional "homework:" Meditate laying down or sitting up for 5 to 10 minutes and then write 3 pages of whatever comes to mind. Try not to censor yourself...
Love,
Lesley
Yoga Fix 30 - Day 5 - Yoga for Core!
DANGER!!!
"The greater danger for most of us lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but setting our aim too low and achieving our mark."
-Michelangelo
Welcome to day 5. I love today's quote. It can be so scary to set high expectations for ourselves. I know! But, if we set our goals high and fall short, it's totally okay. So reach for the sky and believe yourself. You at least deserve that, right? If you achieve your wildest dreams that's awesome. If you don't, I be you'll achieve something equally as awesome that you weren't even expecting. It's a win-win!
Here's today's Louise Hay affirmation...you know what to do:
"I trust the process of life. I am safe."
Additional "homework" Write down some goals that you want to achieve this year and don't sell yourself short!
Love,
Lesley
