Yesterday, 9.26, was the first day of a 6 week Yoga Challenge I am doing with BIG Power Yoga. Yoga challenges are not new for me, they were the tool I used to build my consistent practice. This is the second challenge I have participated in this year, but it feels different this time around.

OHBOI!

Seriously though, I am excited to use this challenge as my discipline to get back to a daily practice. And to make myself more accountable I have started a Youtube series on my channel to Vlog the TRANSFORMATION I go under this go round.
This week's theme:


This was very inspiring. Im choosing happiness. Thank you!
