@mrs_marroquin: "I started practicing yoga May of last year because I wanted to do a form of exercise that I would enjoy, rather than dread and force myself to do. The main reason why I wanted to do yoga was because I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in June of 2011 and my symptoms were driving me crazy. For almost 2 years of being treated, I was having major mood swings, I felt so stressed, and I was constantly battling with my crazy emotions with myself and my hubby. I decided to change with yoga. Yoga helped to release my stress, and allowed my to calm myself and focus everything back to center. I then started posting progress pics on IG, and was surprised to find so many awesome yogis liking and commenting on my pics. So, I started following other yogis and came across yoga challenges. I first participated in the #moveyoasna yoga challenge in September 2013 and fell in love with the practice evermore. What I love about the challenge was that it motivated you to do yoga everyday. I am proud to day that I have actively been doing yoga everyday since September 2013. I have never felt so good and healthy and happy about my body, and I am truly grateful for all that I am learning about myself through yoga. I have even made friends through IG because of yoga, so this practice has been a win-win overall! I am tagging @otsbggno on this post, and I personally thank her for her constant support of my practice. Even though we are miles apart, your words of motivation and support truly goes a long way and I appreciate every single word of it! I embrace yoga forevermore!
