Here Comes the Sun
I try to do Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskar) as often as possible these days. It’s basically a series of 12 postures that are meant to build flexibility and strength. I find that it’s most useful for me for centering myself and reducing stress. You can also do it just about anywhere. Here’s an example that’s pretty easy to follow. Once you get the hang of it, it’s pretty easy to get into it.
Stress affects all people differently. I have always wished I was one of those women that when she gets stress she drops a bunch of weight. No such luck here. It’s almost as if the as my stress level increases it wraps itself around my stomach and hold onto the chub for dear life. I did several rounds today…oh and some handstands. Nothing calms a tantruming 2 year old down like a handstand. He thinks it’s funny, I can find my center and calm down. All is well. I can practically feel the stress loosening its grip. Let my love handles go.
