Makeyour own yoga calendar: October

A costumized yoga calendar  is the best gift  for you or your friends and a good way to motivate them to start Yoga!

Search for sites that create photobooks and calendars. Choose the one that expresses you the most. Then you will need a minimal space at your home to acheive a zen feeling. Choose an outfit in earthy tones, a mat and use your boyfriend as a “photographer”.

12 poses for the 12 months of the year.
Konstantina chose the poses and Fotis, her husband, became her personal photographer.

MATSYENDRASANA/HALF LORD OF THE FISHES

This pose opens the shoulders and chest.

  • Draw the spine up tall
  • Keep your back straight and vertebrae stacked during the twist
  • The twist comes from your belly, not your neck

Finally, a decompression pose! You can stay as long as the photographer needs to take the perfect picture!
