Yoga Pose for Against Comparison Game
Ever found yourself standing up for a friend’s sabotaging self-talk – or your own inner dialogue? Especially when the weather gets warm, we find ourselves watching every other body around us in an effort to compare it to our own. And not in a good way! Before I get into this pose, I’d like you…
Yoga Pose for Dehydration Headache
