Standing Poses
Today I did some standing poses. I did mountain pose, warrior pose II, chair pose, and eagle pose. Mountain pose is definitely my favorite standing pose since I can do this pose practically anywhere and I really think it relieves all my shoulder aches. Warrior pose II is a pretty hard pose, for I wasn't sure how far apart my legs should have been or what it was supposed to feel like. When I was doing warrior pose II, it was very hard to stay in that position; my legs wanted to give out after a few breaths. With chair pose, I wasn't sure if I was "sitting" correctly. I have noticed that I have forgotten many of the small details for each pose. Lastly, I did the eagle pose. I think the eagle pose is one of the more awkward poses we've done; maybe I'm the only one that thinks so. I guess I think it is awkward because I feel so twisted in the eagle pose. Both my arms and legs are wrapped around each other.

generally speaking for the wide leg apart poses, you should be about the distance of one of your own legs apart. Good observation about tadasana and shoulder pain.
