Hi!
Well, I applied the gentle approach again this morning and sure enough – I didn’t even have to convince myself to do my yoga set!  One of the poses (cobra) is particularly challenging for me to do but today not only did I do the pose for the whole time (each of the poses is timed), I actually smiled while I did it!  Yes, I realize I am a laughter yoga instructor and you’d think that smiling and laughing would be a given for me with this challenge but that has been the furthest thing from my mind.  Isn’t it cool how, when I decided to be gentle with myself, I was more successful?  Hhmm…there’s an interesting concept!  Have a great day!
