She Ain’t Heavy, She’s My Teacher
People always ask what is my secret of staying slim after three kids. My formula would be, eat moderately + exercise + be happy = most effective diet pill
Abs exercise is very effective for me. The above is some example of abs exercise I did with my kids when they was younger. Pictures taken sometime in 2007. Eat full nothing to do, this time I decided to try lifting my Teacher to see how far I can progress. Not that she is going to sit on my leg. Siao meh? Lifting her is no biggie actually since her size is petite.
This is my Yoga Teacher. The proper way of positioning the feet is to place them at your partner’s groin area. (AND SUCK THAT ABS IN!!! Thank you.)
Not too bad except when I tried to position my arm forward, the legs started to get woobly.
And now is my turn to go on top.
Teacher is always a teacher right? This time our hands are parallel with each other. Let me tell you what is the feeling being lifted up there. Performing Partner Yoga poses builds a very high level of trust on your partner and nothing else. With all confidence and trust, I managed to let go one hand.
I was very near to perfect it with a prayer pose (palms put together in front of your chest) but the non existence of support really makes a difference! I was terrified of height! I was afraid of falling! I can tell that my legs flew apart and there goes my balancing.
*phew!* Such a terrified act. I cannot understand why my kids love it so much! Can’t wait for Daddy to come home this Wednesday. I’m going to try lifting him this time. muahahaha!
Namaste, everyone!
