Hey Jules,

Heather gave you some good advice.... Depending on what kind of yoga I am practicing I hold most postures for 5 breaths. The ones that I feel like I am really needing that day, I may hold for longer. My suggestion is to try the entire sequence one day when you are not feeling rushed and go through each one and see how long it takes you. If it seems too long for your everyday schedule.. perhaps you can try shortening it OR break it into parts and do what you feel you are needing that day and then doing the entire sequence when you have more time. It is YOUR practice to create to fit your life.... if it's too long and you dread it you probably won't do it... so start playing with it, experiment with holding the postures for 5 breaths or so (or less if that feels to difficult to start with) and see how it unfolds. Either way, keep at it... consistency is the key.

Let us know how it goes.

Peace,
K
