me-time

Finally, I had the chance to attend a yoga class. Listening to the soothing sound and meditating with legs at half lotus was truly heaven on earth. The sun salutation was so invigorating that I was asking for more even if I'm sweating a bucket.

I had a hard time doing the eagle pose, I'm unable to balance myself after 5 counts. Might be because of the weight gain from my pregnancy. Though I'm glad that I can still do a pigeon pose and my favorite shoulder stand and plough. But I can't hold the pose longer than 8 counts. Nevertheless, I enjoyed this ME-time and the best part is that I slept during the 15 minutes relaxation session that felt like a full 2 hours sleep. And ended my day at the gym with 15 minutes at the sauna.

It was the best Sunday I had in months. But the only drawback was the 5 hours away from AJ.

I planned to, I even bought a pregnancy video but the laziness caught up with me. I just played the video twice during my first trimester and that's it.. now its gathering dust and I'm ready to lend it to anyone who needs one.

I always highly recommend yoga to all those who ask me if its worth it. You should go and start that yoga class. I'm sure you won't regret it.. its hard at first (everything is..) but as your body and mind adjust and you feel the effects, you will ask for more... if I can make it to a yoga class everyday.. I would.

Have a great week to u, hubs and rockstar baby :)
