Never thought that I would have my second attempt at yoga after the first. Not because I had a bad experience with it but because I don't have that much confidence that I would be flexible enough to do it.
But when the opportunity comes, I took it. I felt like doing yoga once in a while could have a positive impact in my thoughts and how I perceive things; more than just having a flexible body. I learnt that the yoga that I would be doing is called Jivamukti.
Jivamukti is a yoga method that aspires to greater peace, unity, environmental awareness and karma consciousness. It includes encouraging all to avoid harm and violence. It ultimately manifests the sacred notion of oneness in all beings.
Sounded like it would do me good with all the bad thoughts that had been on mind lately, so why not?
Very thankful for Lucy from http://www.lulabellelifestyle.com/ for the invite to #BLOGMEETSG! I had a lot of fun meeting and socializing with the bloggers who were present. I appreciate the idea of having sessions like these for bloggers to get to know one another!
As the title suggested, the yoga was held at Pure Yoga where it provided us with wonderful locker, changing rooms and shower facilities. I was very impressed with how clean and well-equipped the place was. Even hair dryers were provided!
The yoga room was very spacious surrounded by gigantic mirrors. Awesome for when you don't know if you're doing a position right and you have to check if you are. *perfect for people like me
We had to do a lot of deep breathes during the session when we were in a position.
If you're a beginner(aka like me), you have nothing to worry about if you are not flexible enough! The instructor, Kristen, was very understanding about that. She provided us with a few options for certain positions if weren't not confident enough to go "all the way".
After the yoga session, we got to have a little meet-and-greet session with the sponsors, welcomed with light nutritional snacks as well!
The nutritional snacks all tasted better than I expected, to be honest!
My favourite was the kale crisps for sure.
I gotta say, the most exciting part of the whole event , besides getting to meet more bloggers and sponsors are the goodie bags filled with loves from the sponsors!
