Whilst it is important to care for our little ones as parents, it is equally important to make time to care for ourselves. Afterall, looking after a little one, with or without a job/business on top is in itself very demanding both in terms of energy and time. We need to ensure a healthy and balanced lifestyle, both mind and body.
A great way to unite your mind and body is by way of yoga practice. Funkimama takes at least 20 minutes from her daily schedule for her yoga exercise. Apart from enrolling in a class, you may also opt for great audio classes downloadable onto your computers and mp3s. A wide variety of yoga classes are downloadable from yogadownload.com. The 20-minute classes are free for dowloading, while you may purchase longer class of your choice. There are yoga classes of varying levels and styles to suit your needs and level of fitness. Pose guides are also readily downdloadable in PDF format as a handy reference.
Always consult your doctor prior to commencing any exercise at home, especially if you have not exercised for a while and/or if you are a complete beginner. Some yoga postures may require basic yoga knowledge. Be safe and enjoy the benefits of yoga! Happy yoga-ing!
