December Yoga Challenges: Day 19

#JustBePresent Challenge

I can't believe I was able to get into Dragonfly, let alone hold it for a breath! THIS is why Yoga Challenges are so great - they inspire you to try something that you wouldn't have dared to before. I didn't even bother looking into Dragonfly pose, assuming it was too hard for me (especially after reading this post from Lululemon's blog). But doing the #JustBePresent challenge has kept me doing every pose, every day. Say what you want about social media, but it does keep you accountable to what you say. I'm so glad I stuck with the challenge and didn't give up. It's really amazing what you can do when you just try. 

#JustBePresent Day 19: Dragonfly. Photography is really something - a pose like this is captured in a moment of calm, when in reality, my arms were shaking, my leg was wobbling, and I was only able to hold the pose a few seconds. But this is what #Progress looks like! #ProgressNotPerfection #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #asana #dragonfly #yogainspiration #yogachallenge #challenge #improvement #yogagirl #strength #breathe #namaste #om #omshanti
