Transcript

hi everybody I'm yogi Cecily and I'm here once again to talk to you about equipment that you will need for all of your online exercise and yoga experiences now the last time we talked about meditation cushions and before that I talked to you about exercise tubing and bands so what I want to do today is finish up everything about meditation cushions now we talked about cushions that might be too soft versus a cushion that is firmer and can also be used as a bolster that's my preference you always want to get something that has double uses right now today I just wanted to show you my true favorite cushion and this was a gift from Cost Plus World Market and it's a foldable cushion what I like about this cushion is because it folds the back end of it is higher than the front end so that gets my hips up nice and high and remember we talked about higher hips helping your knees to drop down lower so if you want that sort of folded knee position that's gonna be better but for me why I like this cushion is because I've got really cranky ankle bones which means I don't like to put my ankles down on a hard surface sometimes I might be on a meditation retreat and you're just there you know on the concrete or on on a wooden deck and this is my favorite cushion because it gives me a seat and a place for my ankle bones now check out this cushion it's also a mini mat I'm going to turn sideways so that you can see it and what I mean by that is look how it unfolds right and then I'm going to turn it this way and it's a mini mat because it still has this side is a little bit higher so let's say you're on a picnic and you just want to lie down it gives me nice support along my spine and have this is very nice see it has more than one use so I really love this you could use it on your shades as well if you're outside on a deck that's why this is my favorite meditation cushion look I can even leave it unfold it like this and it still gives me a little bit of an upward piece for my hips and much more space on the lower in for my ankles and my knees see that so again this is your foldable meditation cushion of my favorite and it's great if friends come over to your house because if you didn't need another seat in your house you can unfold it for them and then everybody can have the pizza party right now next time we meet I'm gonna flip back into doing fitness and I want to talk to you about kettlebells vs. dumbbells do you need both hmm what's the difference in the grip what are the differences in the weight and how to actually use both of these effectively in your home workout so I hope you check that one out next going back into Fitness moving out of yoga stay with me on all of these tutorials again I'm yogi Cecily and I look forward to seeing you again soon you
