Yoga

September 4, 2011

So--I haven't really caught up all the way on my blogging--I still have a few stories left to go to get caught up! But--I have started doing Yoga this past week. I had made a personal goal in my physical goals to work on flexibility--I have never been very flexible--period. But, my friend Bridger was buying a livingsocial deal to do yoga and he invited me to join him. We also bought one for our friend Roque for his birthday. So--the three of us have been attending yoga here in Draper. It has been interesting. I went four times this week. And I love the way it makes you feel--physically and mentally. Well--my body maybe hates it a little--I still am not great at being flexible (I still have never been able to reach my toes). But--my spirit is enjoying the time to meditate and ponder about me and my being. It is also nice to just think about breathing. I love the new age relaxing music that we listen to as we do the poses. And I love feeling the muscles in my body that I didn't even realize I had. But--four times may have been to much for 3 days!

So--I have a new goal to continue to go to Yoga at least a couple times a month to put me in the right zone of thinking. The deal we bought only lasts us for two weeks, but this studio also has free classes on Friday evenings. So--if I have free time on a Friday night (ha--it may be happening more now that I've made some recent decisions...in the past few weeks I've decided to narrow my dating down to one guy...) you might be able to find me at yoga.

It has made my mind think so much more differently lately. It is more focused and relaxed.
