Golden Excuses for not practising Yoga at home busted

Excuses Busted

1. I don’t have time.

There are times in life where you feel layed back and you don’t think you have time. But these are generally the times you need to practice the most. You don’t have to spend more than 10 minutes practicing. Set an alarm, do 10 minutes on your mat, and walk away.

2. I start, and then I don’t know what I am doing.

Self-practice is not about mimicking your teachers hour long session. Choose a short and digestible amount—be it your own short program of asanas or a something specific your teacher has set for you, and do 10 minutes.  It’s a physical thing, . Move. Feel and breathe. That is all.

 3. I can just go to a class.

Yes, you can, and classes are valuable. But the best part is when your teacher teaches you, and you practice. Through self-practice you digest what you have done in class, and meet and overcome new blockages..

4. I don’t get the same effect of self-practice as a class.

What motivates you about the class? Practicing in a space designated for classes is a real treat. Plus, you can really be energized and inspired by your fellow students.

5. It’s too hard.

Many of my clients come to me saying  Rajashri  Please this is too hard , it hurts , it aches  , we are not comng to the class for the next 2 days but my whole point is Nothing that is worth having in life comes easily. If it were easy, would you be so interested? So, go for it—you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Start your self-practice today!
