Yoga practice: Week 1

 Hello! Today was my first day at trying to understand (and actually like) yoga! I decided to follow along with a video I found on Youtube for beginners yoga by a channel named "Yoga With Adriene". I plan to try and find a new video for a few weeks so I can see what kind of energy or mood I like best.  I haven't done yoga in a while but I do know some basic posses. I liked how Adriene really explained the posses and how to do them. Not just saying "get down on all fours on your mat" but explaining where everything should be positioned and how you should be reach from the earth. It was very helpful with feeling like I was doing everything correctly. I did like how she focused on how to breathe in the beginning and throughout the video. Though I did feel a little frustrated when I couldn't do the posses with the same flexibility as she could but felt like she wasn't someone who wanted you to get the posses exact, just as close as you can. Thankfully nothin

Introduction

 Hello! My name is Spencer Lincoln. You may have noticed the title "Angry Yoga Girl" on this blog. That's because I have tried doing yoga classes in the past but have always left extremely angry for whatever reason. I don't know why but I always said if I needed to fight someone, I would go to a yoga class first to hype me up! I have extreme tight hamstrings which doing a lot of the poses become hard for me and frustrating when a teacher touches my back to try and get me to go lower and I can't. As funny or strange as that may be, I do love all the energy that I see yoga give off to others and a lot of the practices of it. So I want to give it a really good try with taking a class. I hope you enjoy this journey of someone who is trying their best and possibly failing miserably!!! lol
