I’ve always liked the idea of doing yoga. It seems so serene. Over the years, I‘ve tried doing yoga in a variety of different ways, all with the same unfortunate results. I start out very eager. I push myself to do the poses and find myself becoming competitive. Within two or three days, I’ve hurt myself and that’s about the end of my attempt.

I got Morning Yoga Workout, hoping that this time might be different. Surprisingly it was. It’s been two weeks and I’ve only missed one workout (on the third day). I feel pretty good.

Even though I am getting up earlier every morning to do my workout, it doesn’t seem to be a big chore. I think it’s because the author puts a great deal of emphasis on breathing. Therefore, instead of getting overwhelmed with worries that I might not be doing a pose quite right or moving to the harder positions before my body is ready, I simply focus on my breathing. It’s pretty easy to get up and do a workout when you tell yourself that your sole purpose is to breathe. The book includes light, moderate, and intense 15-20, 30-40, and 50-60 minute workouts for any fitness level and schedule.

Been implementing some casual yoga into my schedule lately, and this has some good routines for a beginner like myself. Only, I don't really do them in the mornings (whoops), I'm more of an evening yoga kinda gal. Regardless, this book has hit all the right spots for me.
