My 1st Yoga Encounter

It's a brand New Day in a brand New Year.

My mind is made up! My resolution set in stone. Just like most people blindly diving into their New Year resolution, I had no idea what I had gotten myself into. Quite frankly, I bit off way more than I can chew.

I fell in love with the beautiful and talented @beachyogagirl ... Who wouldn't fall for the endless pictures jam packed with graceful notes of daily inspiration. Like a fish attracted to fresh bait, I fell like "Hook, Line & Sinker!" Lucky for me, she was hosting a #yogachallenge called #jan14yogachallenge

To give you a brief breakdown of "how" these challenges work; you decide on a challenge, you follow the host/hosts and in some occasions you follow the sponsors (optional) for the chance to win great prizes. Everyday for the month, the host/hosts will posts a picture on Instagram with instructions for you to practice the pose. Work on the yoga pose, snap a picture (or video) and share your picture. Don't forget to share your moment by hash tagging the challenge name and tagging the host/hosts. Bam! You can now get started on Instagram yoga challenges.

January's challenge was as "BEAST" as @beachyogagirl herself. Hence, why I don't have a picture for everyday. Truth be told, I spent my month battered and bruise from the countless falls. At the end of it all, I was constantly reminding myself "I'm in it for the long haul!"

I've shared a few pictures from the January challenge.
