With my sore left wrist and sore right knee, yoga can get interesting at times. I modify, and then modify some more, but I am getting a little stronger.

My version: Not even close, even if I put my weight on my fists instead of hands flat.

Me: On my elbows. Or just on the floor.

Me: I'm okay if put my weight toward my left knee and right hand. I probably list a bit.

Child's Pose
I can do it! The pressure is off of my knees, and my wrist stretched out, so it's easy. I'm sure I don't look as pretty as this girl: |

However, you're just as likely to find me like this:

Or this--now, that's a comfortable child! Interestingly, this photo actually demonstrates a neck exercise.

But hey, at least I'm stretching, right? I've started following the "30 Days of Yoga" with Adriene. I won't get done in 30 consecutive days, since I alternate it with a walking program and take Sundays off, but I just finished day 4.

I figured out I can get YouTube with my Roku, so I can stream the videos to my TV without having to download them to a DVD. The best part of it is that after the first two, there were no ads. I guess the advertisers figured nobody sticks with it. But I am! Modified, yes, but I am doing something!
