  After trying and trying, I was finally able to achieve Dhanurasana (Bow Pose) tonight! urlLink Looks easy and I imagine it is easy, if you don't have two steel rods on both sides of your spine and a spine fusion, like I do.
But tonight, I managed to do it. Maybe not as high as on this picture, but definitely higher and more easily than ever before. Not sure how I did it. I guess I really tucked my tummy in, pushed my hip bones deep into the ground, and pulled on my legs... my body just lifted, almost by itself! That's the beauty of yoga. You try something for months and months, it doesn't work. Then, one day, just like that, everything's changed and you finally understand that it can be that simple. I'm proud of myself tonight. Just because logically, my body should tell me that I can't. Yet, I can.
