One More Reader Ready for Doga

While I've been recovering from a little health issue, I've really been missing my Doga workout. Thankfully I'm on the mend and will soon be back to practicing. I keep promising Tanner and Oliver this will be very soon--hopefully next week.

Today I'm here to announce the winner of the giveaway that will fully prepare one reader for her Doga practice or yoga class. The prize includes a yoga mat, a journal to log poses and progress, and a cute, dog-themed tote bag to haul your yoga clothing, water bottle, blocks or other supplies.

Our winner today is B. Phillips. I'll be in touch shortly to notify you of your prize and collect your mailing information. If you beat me to the punch, feel free to send your address to AllThingsDogBlog@gmail.com.

If you're not today's winner, don't fret. I have 2 more yoga mats, tote bags and journals. And there's books to come as well. Interested in winning? Make sure you're subscribed to our newsletter so that you don't miss a single giveaway. And don't forget to click the confirmation email that will come to your inbox shortly after you subscribe. Membership has its perks!

Tomorrow's new Doga pose and video training will feature my favorite pose, the Child's Pose. This relaxing pose stretches the back of the body, especially working through the glutes, leaving you feeling relaxed and awakened. It may take a while to reach the positions you see in the photos and video, but keep in mind that yoga is a journey to be enjoyed at your own pace. Don't rush your body. Listen to it! See you tomorrow for the Child's Pose!

Off to Doga Class

I'm off to Doga class. Don't worry. Oliver is coming along also. It wouldn't be Doga with him. But also he's like an American Express card. I never leave home without him. Well, almost never.

We've now passed the halfway point in the beginner Doga videos, each lasting only a few minutes. I run a new one each Saturday, and am sure to share the links to all on each post so you can try out the others when you're feeling adventurous.

Speaking of adventure, I took on Google and found a few listings of Doga classes in my area. I've also found several Doga books on Amazon. I guess it's not as off the beaten path as I thought, although still not a household word. Nevertheless, I'm enjoying playing a small part in changing that.

I've splurged on a few prizes to inspire and encourage you. Today I'm starting a new giveaway that will go to one lucky winner: a dog-themed Tote bag (see an example in my photo), a Yoga mat (colors vary), and a yoga journal to keep track of your progress and make notes about new poses. I keep discovering new ones each time I get on Youtube or Instagram.

Funny thing about Instagram is that there are a ton of yogis that use this social media. You'll find loads of inspiration in photos, videos and sentiments--while not necessarily all  safe for beginners--and enjoy the journey of seeing what others have accomplished. My daily visit to Instagram is now a ooooo and ahhhh session, as I'm always amazed at the talents of some of the yogis I have followed. It's fun to see their gymnastics!

Tanner Gets His Affection During Practice Too

Let's get on with this giveaway, yes? Who needs a nice, cushy new yoga mat for their practice? Or possibly an adorable tote bag to lug your stuff around in, journal included. All this goes to one lucky winner. 

Remember that the Rafflecopter sometimes works on its Corpse Pose and you may not find it at the bottom of the post. You can bring it back to life by clicking on the post title. Let the workout begin!
