Hey, EED community!
Ack! Almost forgot! Here is your daily check-in post!
If you are posting for the first time, or new to the community, please review the community's standards, below.
1. Mod (that's me!) will post a Daily Check In post, for those who prefer to note their daily activities in response to a prompt. Please only place exercise comments here.
2. All members are encouraged to post daily independent posts about their activities, if they prefer that to a prompt.
3. Please place any NON-EXERCISE comments in independent update posts and behind a cut. Some people are sensitive to discussion of diet and nutrition. That is integral to many people's exercise activities, so I want members to be able to discuss that, but for those who are here strictly to log exercise, I would like them to be able to avert their eyes.
4. Everyone is encouraged to introduce themselves, discuss their exercise goals, and post updates on their activities. "I finally made it to running a mile!" or "I kicked up into handstand today!" are updates that we all want to hear about and share! Please put long posts and entries involving diet and nutrition behind a cut, though.
5. Aside from intro posts and injury announcements, please try to include an exercise update in every post.

Date: 2010-07-29 02:27 pm (UTC)I think a lot of instrutors who create yoga DVDs think this way (which is probably why I think this way, since I'm totally DVD taught), because most DVDs run 45 minutes to an hour. Shiva Rea's pre-set practices often run well over an hour, as she tends to include decent pranayama (breathing) in warmups as well as meditation.
That's not to say that you need to plan 80 minutes every day for your practice! But for me, if I could have what I want, I would probably be on the mat for 80 minutes every morning. I'm a little bit born-again about my yoga, though... :D
