Yoga

So if you are anything like me you don't exactly feel like working out on Sundays, it's my one day to rest between church! So on Sunday I have began trying out yoga. When I first thought about trying it I was kind of against the idea because it just seems like you would be taking time out of your day to do something that has no effect on your body! Well needless to say.... I was wrong. Besides relaxing you, it helps you to become even more flexible, and to a certain degree stronger. I don't do the "Owm" and meditating thing though!


These should be done with s..l..o..w, f..l..o..w..i..n..g motions. Remember to breathe deeply!

This workout is a bit longer and has the places marked where to inhale and exhale. These should still be done with s..l..o..w, and f..l..o..w..i..n..g motions!


I just happened to like these two workouts the best but there are many others in all degrees of difficulty. 
Enjoy!

    Yoga is an amazing way of relieving stress too! I'm promising myself everyday to take up yoga or start meditating, all for nothing by now, but maybe I'll give it a try after your post:)

2014-2015 Plum Paper Planner!

This is my new  Plum Paper Planner , and is most definitely one of my favorite possessions right now!  It came packaged like this...  I got  this  design, and added on an extra six months, making it an 18 month planner.  That was the really cool thing about this company, everything is customizable.  You can get your name and monogram on certain planner designs for free, you can add extra months like I did, add extra notes pages, budget pages, and more!  The standard planner with an extra six months was $48.75, which was pretty expensive... but it was a Christmas present, and will last me through the first year of college, so I could justify it! It has tabs on the side, which are laminated and reinforced  One of the first pages in the planner is a full 2015 planner, and on the next pages a 2016 calendar.  Each month begins with two note pages, which...

Graze, February 22-28

This is the box I got from the Graze company, which I heard about while listening to Pandora! This was from the week of February 22-28, and was completely free!  This was how the outside looked... Upon opening it, I saw it was very similar to the Nibblr box I received about two months ago, but I like it better!  The first thing on top was a paper explaining the box, with little friends and family coupons with my referral code on it ( 6FZ4FVQVP ) and on the back it had the nutrition facts for the snacks, which was really handy.  The first snack was Key Lime Pie, which consisted of: lime raisins, mini meringues, vanilla cookies, and green raisins Well... I wasn't really a fan of this one.  The green raisins and the mini meringues were ok, and my friend liked the cookies, but I am just not a fan of lime.  These were oat spelt and cocoa cookies with a cherry compote to dip them in! I loved these! The cooki...
