It's Here!! Day 1 of #ANYASelfCareChallenge !! 🔮c a l m 🔮 . . The pose of the day is Child's Pose ✨ I recently got the question "do you ever get sick of starting your class in child's pose?" ...😐😑 ...NEVER! I LOVE child's pose 💕 I've had entire self-practice sessions the consist of child's pose hand to god!! Starting child's pose acts like coming back to the womb and helps to tune out what's around you and truly tune inward. Meditation Technique: Body Scan: I start every single one of my classes with a body scan as well. Tuning into each part of my body and just noticing, without feeling the need to change anything helps me to express gratitude for each part of my body, exactly as it is at this very moment. And the best part, YOU CAN DO IT ANYWHERE AT ANY TIME!! I did it on the subway today 🤷🏼‍♀️ Mantra: Soham 💭 Chanting this silently while listening to Christmas Music... #stillworks Essential Oil: Lavender. I love diffusing lavender through my apt with my diffuser. And the look of lavender is calming within itself! . . You can still join the challenge! It's only day one and I already feel I've cultivated a bit more self love ❤️ Host: @studioanya Sponsors: @malaprayer @ai.to.you @latinbeet . . #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #childspose #selfcare #selflove #yogachallenge #fitness #health #wellness #calm #mentalhealth #essentialoils #mantra #asana #bbg #bbgcommunity #anya #igyogafam #igyogachallenge #fitfam #fitgirl #mindful #awareness #bodylove (at ANYA)

DAY 9: Self-care theme: OPENNESS ~ 💫 ✨🙏🏽 #anyaselfcarechallenge Today I am reminded to stay open. While I am completely exhausted and under the weather I am staying open because amazing things are happening in my life. I am stilling my mind and resting easy.

day 1; self care theme: calm • Child's pose. I find a lot of peace here and could stay like this for hours. It's so much easier to find my breath in this position than many others, it becomes so centering and calming. I feel whole here, like my body is a complete ball of energy and through the outlet of my hands I still hold the feeling of the presence of this world. I also love that in this position I tend to reflect, not only on my body but also on outward and inward experiences. Lavender being the aromatherapy for this day also is amazing, I love the smell and the color, probably one of my favorite smells, probably one of my favorite colors. It takes me to high places. It's so relaxing and easing to my mind. I also feel like lavender lately. A soft purple.. a flower, so delicate, all I've been desiring lately is to become soft in my body and my ways but strong enough to still rise. Which I think back to the smell and I believe it correlates with my speech, something you can't see or touch but must sense and understand in a whole new way, bringing new thoughts & ideas of & from a higher consciousness. To find and feel my tenderness so deeply, that it begins to resonate outward is definitely a dream of mine. 🙏🏻💜 • #anyaselfcarechallenge (at SUNY Purchase)
