Yoga Glo is a monthly subscription service that provides you access to thousands of unique yoga videos filmed in the company’s Santa Monica, CA studio. A good friend of mine got me on to this platform as I often struggle to find time in my week to go to a studio for 90 minutes for one class. Instead I choose 2-4 shorter sessions that I can complete in my own time. This is the perfect way to access the best yogi’s and make daily yoga part of your routine.
Tracking food intake is still one of the best methods for long term weight loss success. The numbers simply do not lie! The app also teaches the user important information on portion control, calorie density and where our energy comes from. Be patient in using this app, start small and aim to build skills over time.
This app forces me to be more mindful of how much work versus leisure time I am spending on my phone and striving for a more balanced approach. It has taught me to stop picking up my phone unnecessarily and learning to switch off at night time.
I am not a runner! I much prefer to lift weight than regularly pound the pavement. But I do enjoy running. I have set myself a goal to hit 50k in 8 weeks. This goal is very easily achieved and tracked using Map My Run. This popular running app allows you to track runs, challenge others, follow training plans and set performance goals around your running.
This app also allows you to create and discover new routes wherever you are and save your favorites for the next time you’re ready to run.
