Namaste


I went to yoga class today. I'm still recuperating from a cold, and I felt tired and out of sorts this morning. I almost didn't go. But I made myself go. I can only tolerate so many days cooped up inside!

I'm so glad I went! As we relaxed into our breathing I felt all the fatigue leave my body. As we did some torso twists, I felt the tension leave my body. As we moved through the Warrior series of poses, I felt energy moving through my body. Then we had a discussion when someone asked the meaning of "namaste", about bringing peace and light into this weary, weary world.

My body was energized and my spirit was lifted. It was a good session.
