The girls and I do yoga together sometimes, just for fun. You should see us trying to do blackbird - I have to line up cushions on the floor for us to fall into. Everyone's favourite is sleeping snake. I lie down on the floor, and breathe diaphramatically. ( " Yes Sian, mummy is making her tummy go up when she breathes in. You need to do that too. " ) Then Cate lies down with her head on my tummy and matches my breathing. Then Sian lies down with her head on Cate's tummy and matches her breathing. Wonderfully relaxing, but challenging if the puppy wants to join in! Much love to all, - Mum to Cate 10yrs wocf and Sian 6yrs wcf, asthma, GERD and ADD Canberra Australia- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
