Yoga Habit Routine

I've been slipping lately in my Yoga. Now it's become more of an on-again-off-again past time rather then a lifestyle like it used to be, and that kind of saddens me a little bit. I know stuff happens and it's so easy to get busy that I won't always have time for Yoga, but time or not, if it becomes less important as a steady part of my life, mainly because it's not really a habit lately, then it'll just become more "effort" later on to really start getting back into it. I can't get much benefit out of Yoga unless it IS a habit again, so I guess that's the ticket right there, make it a habit again to be sure it "sticks" this time and becomes a lifestyle again. Some of my favorite poses include Pigeon Pose, Dolphin, Locust, and Warrior Pose, and I find my go-to sequence for the morning (when I do practice) starts in Tadasana and usually ends up right back up there, this sequence is maybe one of the most relaxing or invigorating sequences, depending on speed and added resting and meditation poses, and the one that always makes me feel the best about myself, even as I'm constantly working on my body balance, flexors, core strength and flexibility. Who else has some yoga in their life and has a favorite pose or three? I would love to hear thoughts on the best and maybe even not so easy poses you folks know of and/or practice!

Thank you, @Plethos! I'm sure I will be able to, especially if I take a page from others and just start being more zen again, probably naturally move right into poses again, it just comes down to habit and picking the habit back up.

@ladyankh3909 - perhaps maybe having a yoga buddy or two to get you back into the groove.
