I was doing legs at the gym today,I was doing leg presses toward the end of my workout and this guy that had been there for about the same amount of time as I had came up and goes “Girl, your legs are going to be sore tomorrow.”
It made me chuckle and think to myself “I sure hope so.”

I NEED to stop cheating on eating clean. It isn’t helping me and most of it doesn’t even taste good. Plus I’m bloated and tired and my skin is suffering.
Eat clean=feel good

Asana of the Week: Mayurasana – Peacock Pose
A mystical symbol of love and immortality, this pose awakens the Kundalini, conjuring an innate sense of wholeness and union. Deeply purifying, and invigorating, the digestive system is purged of toxins, and cleansing organs are revitalized as the inner fire is stoked.
There are many benefits to doing this pose aside from those stated above. Mayurasan purifies and detoxifies the entire digestive system, destroying the effect of putrid or unwholesome food or gastrointestinal disorders, decreases swelling in liver and spleen; detoxifies, tones abdominals and bowels, cures chronic and habitual constipation, awakens Kundalini energy increasing connectivity and astral unification.
Step by Step
(Yoga Journal)
Kneel on the floor, knees wide, and sit on your heels. Lean forward and press your palms on the floor with your fingers turned back toward your torso (thumbs pointing out to the sides). Bend your elbows slightly and touch the pinky sides of your hands and the outer forearms (up to the elbows) together. Then bend your elbows to a right angle and slide your knees to the outside of your arms and forward of your hands. Lean your front torso onto the backs of your upper arms and burrow your elbows deep into your belly at or below the navel.
If your elbows slide apart, you can bind them together with a strap. Position the strap just above your elbows. If you can’t quite manage the full pose (as described in the next step), support your feet on a block (sitting on one of its sides), placed near the back end of your sticky mat.
Firm your belly against the pressure of the elbows. Lower your forehead to the floor. Then, straighten your knees and stretch your legs out behind your torso, tops of your feet on the floor. Firm your buttocks and round your shoulders slightly downward. Lift your head off the floor and look forward. Lean your weight slightly forward—if your legs and buttocks are firm and active, this slight shift of weight will lever your feet off the floor. Position your torso and legs approximately parallel to the floor (you may also Lift the head or balance on the chin as shown in photograph) for shoulder or neck injuries.
Hold at first for about 10 seconds, gradually increasing your time to 30 seconds as you gain more experience with the pose. Then lower your head and feet to the floor, bend your knees, and lift your torso off your arms.
