Tuesday Yin

Last night was good satisfying practice.

I knew in my mind that I wanted to work on releasing my hips even more, been obsessed with the Firelog pose everytime I sit down. Could not even figure out where in my hips is the tightness that I can't bring my knees down. So my focus for last night was hip sequence I got from Yoga Journal.

I warmed up with 5 Surya Namaskara A and B and 1-2 standing poses. Then I went in:

High Lunge

Low Lunge

Warrior 2

Half Moon Pose - I added this myself, just because you know how much I love this pose.

Lizard pose with back knee off

Half Lord of the Fishes

Gomukhasana

Firelog Pose - I added this myself too

Half Pigeon or Low Pigeon: this one was very intense and good.

Baddha Konasana

and finally Frog Pose - this was good too.

I relished the downward dog in between. And then I worked on my back:

Sphinx

Baby Cobra

Cobra

Locust

Flying Locust

Modified Bow

Camel against the wall.

Then I used the blocks to provide that stretch in my upper back.

Love the workout. I ended it with the Puppy Pose which gives a nice stretch for my arms and then a nice Savasana.
