MOTIVATION: 60 minutes of yoga.
We buzz around all day every day doing this errand or that, meeting a million friends for coffee or a drink, working, buzzing around, and working some more. All this over scheduling can make it hard to carve out just 60 minutes of time to ourselves to get a sweat in. But it seems silly that we’d spend our days doing millions of things for everyone else but ourselves, now doesn’t it? Check ou these recommended yoga studios to see if there’s one in your area that makes it easy to pop in and get your namaste on. Even just one hour can reshift everything for the rest of your day.

From the article:
I decided to commit myself to thirty straight days of “Bikram’s torture chamber,” as he often refers to it. The yoga itself is 90 minutes, 105 degrees, 26 postures and two breathing exercises designed to work every system, every muscle in your body. It’s a big sweaty stretch-fest that transforms your body “from the inside out” leaving you rejuvenated, more flexible, and more in control of your life. I’ve been practicing this yoga off and on for nearly six years and have never done more than four days in a row, so the challenge of going 30 days sounded insane and exactly like what I needed to move out of Mope-ville.
