Too many of us are hung up on what we don’t have, can’t have, or won’t ever have. We spend too much energy being down, when we could use that same energy – if not less of it – doing, or at least trying to do, some of the things we really want to do. . . . #peace #yoga #melaninyoga #mixedworld #mixed #metissagesanguemisto https://www.instagram.com/p/CV6bDartg4s/?utm_medium=tumblr

In my last two posts, I spoke about the strength of certain skills during the different phases of our menstrual cycle. # Here’s a quick refresh: there are four parts to the menstrual cycle, with a full cycle lasting anywhere between 24-34 days. The primary female sex hormones, estrogen, progesterone, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinising hormone (LH) will rise and fall depending on where a woman is in her cycle. The peaks and troughs in these hormones will also correspond with physical, mental and emotional changes. # In the follicular phase (which comes right after we finish our periods), our estrogen levels begin to increase, contributing to an increase in energy and concentration. Can you relate to feeling like you can focus better during this time? # It’s also a time when creativity is stronger and you may be more open to trying new things (like new yoga poses! 🧘🏽‍♀️). # I’m in my follicular phase right now and I’m feeling the creative juices flowing as I start a new project (more on this soon!). What about you? Do you notice an increase in your creativity too? . . . . . #yoga #yogaeverydamnday #colorsofyoga #melaninyoga #sistersofyoga #womenshealth #fibroids #hormones #hormonehealth #womenshormones #blackwomenshealth #blackwomenrock #blackhealthmatters #blackwomenmatter #healthyblackwomen #blackwellness #nutritionist #nutritionaltherapist #womenatwork #menstrualcycle #periods #menstrualphase #follicularphase #ovulatoryphase #lutealphase #eatlovemove #keepitsimple (at London, United Kingdom)

Last weekend at yoga teacher training, I had a brilliant conversation with some of my classmates about the importance of diversity in yoga; in ages, backgrounds, skin colours, ethnicities and body shapes. # All you need to need to do yoga is willingness (and maybe some loose trousers 😀). Yoga is one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself and I wonder how many people decide not to even try because they don’t see anyone that looks like them in their local classes / studios or feel that they can’t afford all the expensive kit. Or they worry because they can’t do a headstand / shoulder stand / hand stand. Listen, I can barely do a shoulder stand, but I keep trying and going for it 😂 # Yoga truly is for everyone, so find a class that works for you, where you feel comfortable and enjoy the teacher. Or try a few videos on YouTube, until you feel ready to try a class. It’s so worth it! 🧘🏽‍♀️ . . . . . #yogaeverydamnday #yogagram #yogaeverywhere #yogaeveryday #yogainspiration #yogaofcolor #yogisofcolor #colorsofyoga #blackgirlyoga #melaninyoga #eatlovemove #keepitsimple #yogateachertraining #inflexibleyogis @inflexibleyogis (at Isla De Mallorca, Baleares)
