Diet Bet Challenge: Day 19: 30 Minute Yoga Flow
Hi Everyone,
Today is Day 19 of the DietBet Challenge. Are you ready to stretch out all of that hard work you have done this week?
Your body is going to love this yoga flow! I worked up a great sweat, and challenged the muscles throughout my body.
I incorporated movements with a lot of positive health benefits. The twisting movements enhance intestinal/digestive healthy and spinal suppleness/flexibility. Increased flexibility of the spine, and alignment means that your brain is able to transmit signals to your body more accurately.
I also incorporated Plow pose which is linked to thyroid health and reduction of cellulite. It also improves drainage of the lymphatic system.
Those are just a few of the benefits of this particular yoga flow. :)
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! Gambit makes a guest appearance in the end of the video.

Auwauwauw! I pushed myself a little trying to stand on my hands, but instead of standing on my hands, I fell on my head! Ouch, guess I´m not ready yet :)
