After a few weeks of "vacation" after first starting it up, I'm back on the yoga bandwagon again. Hopefully for good this time.

Recently, I've started to do my own routine: two rotations of downward-facing dog, extended side-angle pose and proud warrior, holding each pose for about a minute with a resting pose in-between. Those are followed by a cobbler's pose and seated forward bend. After that, I deviate from the yoga world to do some held sit-ups and held push-ups. To finish things off, I do a relaxation pose to cool down.

Overall, I'm pretty pleased with how the workout feels. I feel taxed while doing it, but I don't feel overly dead afterwards. (The proud warriors still make my bent leg feel like jelly after a while though.) I think I need to watch the pose instruction on the DVD a bit more so I can get the breathing and phases of body movement correct. Eventually, I'd like to take classes or at the very least find a partner so I have someone to critique me.
