Let’s connect

Do you flee the gym as soon as you finish lifting? Maybe you do a quick forward fold and call it good? Today I posted two things for you, my non-stretching friend: . 1️⃣ A 5-minute post leg day stretch video on YouTube . 2️⃣ A blog post about the science behind improving your flexibility (and how you only need 5 mins/week if you do it right!) . I bet you’ve been on Instagram longer than 5 mins. Give me some of that time to streeeeeetch.💕
When baby naps, Mom still plays. . Can you spy the little iPad (my baby monitor) in the corner of this photo?
The @jvn in me honors and sees the @jvn in you. Namaste.

New flow! I called this an intermediate flow because we explore some deep backbends, including forearm wheel. However — as always — I offer modifications so if you’re not into forearm wheel you can find your body’s deepest backbend today. Link to the video is in my profile! Be sure to subscribe to my channel and like the video. . I LOVED backbends before pregnancy and I was very bendy. I did backbends some days when my body felt OK with it, but for the most part, I had to lay off of them. I don’t know why I expected to snap right back into my bendy state when I hadn’t had much of a backbend practice in 10 months, but my ego was a little crushed when I couldn’t grab my heels in camel pose. I’m still not quite where I was before, but I’m making great progress, my core has gotten 100X stronger since pregnancy and I always feel amazing after a good heart-opening practice — whether or not I can touch my toes in camel pose or make it into forearm wheel. . Don’t worry about how “bendy” your body appears in your poses. Just focus on exploring your body’s edge today, enjoy the space you create and the love you experience through your heart-opening practice and love the hell out of your yoga journey.
