Can I just say YOGA is HARD!!!! My friend and neighbor took me to her gym for a yoga class last night.....after about 2 minutes I wanted to make a bee line for the door. Somehow I survived. Man it was crazy hard, but also felt so good to lengthen and stretch my muscles. It made me much more aware of how my muscles must be all balled up and shortened driving in a car all day!!! My friend is a certified instructor and we decided we might do our yoga sessions at her house from now on. (At one point the instructor did a pose and I literally said out loud, "come on, you've got to be kidding"......yikes!!!)

O.k....wrapping up since I have to dart out for work....here is the "list" I read in a medical magazine in a doctor's office......it's the chic from eat, pray, love.....

10 things to do every day for mental, spiritual, and physical well being:


1. read something

2. write something
3. don't eat too much
4. drink water
5. stretch
6. take a walk
7. spend some time in silence
8. send a message of love to someone
9. mess around in the garden (although I don't have a garden, I'm going to buy a basil plant and cilantro plant tonight....will that count?)
10. floss

Enjoy and have an awesome Friday!!!
p.s. down 4 pounds!!!!
