Hello Campers!<\/span><\/p>\n

When thinking about responding to the request for a 30 Day Yoga Challenge I must admit I was turned off at first. <\/span><\/p>\n

I was a bit conflicted. I didn\u2019t want to do one. <\/span><\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t want to do one because most yoga challenges put a bad taste in my mouth. They confuse me, truly, and seem to have mixed messages. I blink my eyes trying to decipher how I really feel. Even when the intention seems right the practice is conflicting. The ol say one thing and do another. <\/span><\/p>\n

I think this is true of modern yoga - now quite big in the current fitness industry. Yoga is supposed to make you feel good! It should be a practice of self-love not depleting self worth, or worse - body shaming.<\/span><\/p>\n

After doing 30 Days Of Yoga last year it was clear that there were plenty of benefits that came out of starting the year off with a regular practice. It was clear that the 30 Day ritual was just that - a ritual, a ceremony - inspiration for regular practice and a celebration of one\u2019s willingness to do the work. <\/span><\/p>\n

But even so, what good is doing the work if you are still unhappy?<\/span><\/p>\n

With Yoga Camp we ask - what is the point of a rigorous workout if you still are waking up in the morning and looking in the mirror and not loving what you see?<\/span><\/p>\n

What is the point of 50 chaturangas if you look in the mirror and don\u2019t know who it is you see?<\/span><\/p>\n

Who cares if you have a rocking body if your mental wellness is a hot mess!<\/span><\/p>\n

Can we live a rich and beautiful life if we don\u2019t love ourselves?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

So I\u2019m poppin\u2019 the BIG question today on Day 29.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll even get down on one knee.<\/span><\/p>\n

Do you love yourself?<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI Do\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Please enjoy your practice today. Please know that you have an admirer out there. <\/span><\/p>\n

Me. <\/span><\/p>\n

I am so incredibly inspired by your willingness to ask the big questions, do the work and tend to not just your physical fitness but your mental health as well. I believe this is a way to true self compassion. <\/span><\/p>\n

After all, it\u2019s all connected baby. <\/span><\/p>\n

With LOVE, <\/span><\/p>\n

Adriene<\/span><\/p>\n
