Just an Entry
by Jerry Harris

Yoga class today was great. I spoke up at the end of class to get some ideas on how to combat my issues with bending at the hips. I have tight hamstrings and they restrict me from fully getting into the forward stretches when trying to keep my legs straight. I want to keep my legs straight.

I was incouraged to practice bending at the hips daily knowing that this will improve with practice. By asking that question, I was inspired to work harder on my yoga practice. I find I like doing the poses I can do but I don't spend much time on the ones I can't because of the discomfort. Now, knowing I will see improvement even just doing what I can do will ease the discomfort and allow me to go deeper into the stretch.
