We’ve been extremely careful throughout this pandemic. Part of this, admittedly, is my pre-existing germaphobia that came out in full force in March of 2020. There are also some pre-existing health risks that make us more careful than most.
The pandemic hasn’t stopped me, however, from making certain we go on our daily neighborhood walks and from doing yoga several times per week. Since we’re also trying to save money, I’ve been on the lookout for free or inexpensive options. I’ve listed a few of my favorites below:
Sarah Beth is AMAZING! I love her flows, how challenging her routines can be, and that she has both free and paid options. Right now, I’m especially enjoying Warrior Strength and Beach Bod #3 which includes a calming, beach-y meditation at the beginning and end.
Since we already subscribe to Music and TV, we decided to get the package that included Fitness. I’ve enjoyed a few of their dance and yoga routines so far. I’m especially happy that the latest OS allows you to stream from your laptop.
If you’re in the Denver area, DBG has classes every Tuesday and Thursday, $12 regular priced, $10 for members. I was doing this more in the summer when we were outside under the pavilion. Farnosh is great and the garden view provides such a zen yoga experience.
I’ve been doing Patricia’s cardio burn videos for years. The 30-minute express video combines a series of flows that you put together at the very end into one routine. It’s challenging and appeals to my dancing background. Patricia is valiantly fighting cancer right now. Her family has set up a GoFundMe in case you would like to contribute.
I have found that whenever I’m experiencing anxiety or hopelessness, a quick yoga routine — even 20 minutes — can completely turn that around. It’s a small locus of control that I have when everything else is…(gestures wildly).
