If R knew how I used her house when she’s gone, she’d never let me come back.

Doing yoga, baking a cake. Why, what do you do in your friend’s kitchen? #Yoga #thatfeltlikethedeepestbackbendever
The day this became a resting pose was a glorious day indeed. #Yoga #downdog
The back was not bending today, @bittyblueberry. I concede. #Yoga #scorpion #vrschikasana
No amount of Epsom salt will make my feet stop feeling all stretched out.
A mark of a good standing practice right there.
Going to go collapse now.
Can’t believe I used to do the Ashtanga primary series every day. Or that I could get into kurmasana without help.
Those were the days.
I just really love this pose. #Yoga #triangle #trikonasana
So, @bittyblueberry, what do we think? A little more bendy? If you squint a little? #Yoga #scorpion #vrschikasana
@yogalarva thanks for recommending David Swenson’s ashtanga practice manual. A home practice lifesaver. #Yoga #ashtanga
Inquiring minds want to know
Dear yoga people,
Is there any therapeutic difference between putting your hand inside or outside your foot in utthita parsvakonasana? I’ve always done it inside—it feels more comfortable, and I can open more by pressing my arm into my leg. But is there a reason to place your hand outside your leg? Also, I’m nosy. Which do you prefer?
I’ll just sit here until you satisfy my curiosity. Waiting…
Just kidding. You have until I finish yoga. Then I’ll get antsy.
Every time I take a break from my paper, I’m going to do a scorpion. Apparently. #Yoga #scorpion #vrschikasana #school
How yoga helps me impress my teenagers
Student: You know, miss, I’m surprised you can carry that many books with your scrawny arms.
Me: Beg your… what are… scrawny arms?!
(does push-up)
Student: No, I’m just saying—
(does bakasana)
Student: Damn, girl!
Battle of the bendy backs with @bittyblueberry :) #Yoga #scorpion #kinda
A month of fooling around and bending.
@bittyblueberry inspired me to try a little more of a backbend. Most important are my two most favorite pair of shoes in the foreground. #Yoga #shoes
