I have to tell myself this everyday.  I have tried multiple times to lose weight over the past 10 years and I failed every time, obviously. NOT this time, thanks to Tumblr and the wonderful followers I have. I AM holding myself accountable this time.

We’ll all be so fit and fabulous in a year, guys! 12 months! 365 days! So many hours of healthiness!

The video previews [and some of the camera angles] make this look like … not an exercise channel [or at least not the kind of exercise I’m aiming for], but the videos I looked at all look like pretty awesome work-outs! They’re quick and there’s a nice variety.

Hip opening poses work to open the joints and muscles around the hips. They helps to keep the pelvis and hips in proper alignment, which prevents strain and tightness in that area. Having flexible hips can ease back pain, improve circulation in your legs, help you to walk easier. Hip openers also have mental and emotional benefits. We hold a lot of tension in our hips from stress, anxiety, sadness, fear, and other negative emotions. Once that tension in our hips is released, the emotional benefits are felt. Below is a list of hip opening poses. When doing these poses, concentrate on your breath and relax your body.
