Yoga

I'm almost 45 and I've noticed a few things lately.

1) I'm having trouble reaching things.  I'm not flexible any more, not like I used to be.  Some might not notice it, but I do.  Especially with the young kids still.

2) I have absolutely no energy.  I'm constantly feeling worn down and want to sleep more than anything.

So tonight I'm starting with the first phase of my change.  Tonight I did a total of 10 yoga poses, holding them gently and counting to 10 with each one.  As they get easier, I'm going to increase the number and the time.

The poses are as follows:

down dog
warrior 2
warrior 1
reverse warrior
side angle (done on both sides - I repeated all warrior poses when I went to do the side angle on the other side)
wide legged forward bend
half lord of fishes pose - both sides
child's pose

I held each pose for a count of 10, but I'm thinking I'm going to look on Amazon for a full easy 15 minute routine to work out the kinks

The lack of energy may get better with a daily yoga practice. The 1/2 hour twice a week personal training isn't helping.  I'm keeping active, and I'm wanting to sleep more than anything.

We'll see what happens  Either way, I'll be doing the warrior poses, the angle pose and the forward bend at least once a day.  The rest will be done before bed.
