Day 0 - Why am I doing a 30 day Challenge?

Hello! Welcome to my Hart Yoga Challenge Blog! I'm starting the challenge tonight, and I thought maybe some folks would like to know why.

I've been practicing at Hart Yoga in Brunswick, Maine off an on (more off than on) during the last year, and I decided a 30 day challenge would be a good way to get me off my butt and into the habit of working out every day. I'm getting married in November and I would like to look my best well before then, at least while trying on dresses!

Why Hot Yoga? Short answer - I like it. I don't like running, or going to the gym, I don't really have the motivation to work out at home. I like the heat. Yeah, it can make breathing kind of hard, and it makes you super sweaty, but I think it makes me more flexible and allows me to get into postures I might not otherwise be able to do. And trust me - there's a lot I still can't do. But at the end of class, I'm tired and I'm sore with a bonus of feeling really good about myself.

I'm still very much a beginner at yoga, and I encourage all you beginners to come in and try it out with me!

Though you're probably finding me through facebook - here I am:
