Yoga and Backcountry Skiing: Same Same...
10 Reasons Why I love Backcountry Skiing & Yoga
...and how they are similar.
Today I got re-inspired. How? By going outside. Getting on snow, walking up the mountain on my skis and reconnecting to everything that is important. Being Present.
I know this to be the pill for me, but somehow work always seems to get in the way. On my skis today, I realized how much backcountry skiing is like yoga. (Sub out the word backcountry skiing for your favorite activity here).
The Top Ten Reasons I love Yoga and Backcountry Skiing?
