Mini Yoga Fix

Last Friday I had planned on a good solid hour of yoga before having to head to the airport, but as we all know, time to get things done prior to leaving on a trip seems to always be a lot less than you had thought. But I was determined to get in some good yoga, and came up with this practice that felt great and took about 20 minutes. Short on time? You can still get your yoga fix.

5 cat-cows
Uttanasana holding elbows for 10 breaths, roll to standing
3 sun salutations, A version
Triangle
Prasarita Padotanasana C
Tree
Supported Bridge with block; from here, go into wheel, and then lower back onto block, repeat 3x. *this is my new favorite, it feels amazing.
Headstand for 25 breaths
Child's pose
Reclining twist
Savasana

I just re-read this list and noticed that I mix English with Sanskrit names. I believe I do this when teaching too. Some poses just don't translate well. If you're not sure about any of these, just type them in at yogajournal.com's pose finder.

Let me know what you think! Namaste. Back to more food next.
