FeetUp Trainer

Hello!

So I got a new FeetUp trainer recently - if I'm honest on a total whim because I received a 10% off voucher but I am absolutely loving it!
Apart form the fact that I love a bargain, I really love how thoughtfully put together this is, the natural wood used and the posters included to show the HUGE range of poses you can do :)

The main reason I got this was because I absolutely love inversions and want to be able to do more, but with my joint problems and fibromyalgia I honestly wasn't able to do as much as I wanted to.  The FeetUp lets me do inversions without pressure on my neck and shoulders, as well as not making my already sore shoulders, wrists and hands worse.

Several years ago, I would have been constantly comparing myself to others, feeling bad that I wasn't as strong, thin, flexible, whatever as other people.  I was forever feeling not good enough or not worthy.

Now though, it's completely different.  Don't get me wrong, I still have down days (who doesn't!) where I feel a little inadequate...but yoga has completely changed how I view myself.

I now realise that we are all different, we all have our strengths and weaknesses, we all have our limitations and we are ALL worthy!  My body is more than something to constantly strive to improve, it is amazing just the way it is.

Honestly, without being so into yoga, especially the aspect of realising that I am not my thoughts, reframing situations and being able to be more present in the moment; I would not be in the emotional and mental place I'm in.  

I have yoga to thank for my self-esteem and my ability to realise I am worthwhile.  If you want to know more about how to get yourself to the same place PLEASE let me know - I can share ideas and resources with you, or even take you through some meditation sessions.

If you're interested in the FeetUp - you can find more at https://feetuptrainer.co.uk - I love mine :)
