Finally, my husband has decided to join me in the practice of yoga!

I have been practicing several styles of yoga for five years now, and when I met Lee I had to tone it down a bit because we spent nearly every waking moment together. No time for peace and serenity to myself much. Last year I decided to participate in an after-school program by instructing children's yoga.

Constantly, I have thought that my husband needs yoga in his life, but I never pushed it. I let the Divine deal with it. Lee is an athlete and he's had a very challenging childhood with many disappointments and neglect. This guy has lots of underlying issues that surface in his dreams and at times, in our heated discussions. So, naturally the practice of yoga would help. Recently, he discovered that he may have staph infections, and did some research about symptoms and treatment of it.  Well, to make a long story short, he discovered homeopathic remedies paired with yoga would help because he's afraid of the doctor's office (gives him high blood pressure). Finally, he wants to begin practicing yoga with me! 

The only thing is, I haven't taken instruction courses yet and I am having a hard time getting him started. Right now he's stiff as a board, can't even sit cross legged or any bent legged sit for that matter. What to do!? I decided to start him off with breathing exercises. Sit and breathe, focus on your center within, invite silence within. I also showed him the corpse asana. I hope I'm doing this right, but if anyone has suggestions let me know. I really want to share this with my husband since we already share so much. I want him to know the peace and consciousness I have gained with practicing yoga. I love this guy!
