Nuthin' up My Sleeve...

Magically, we turned ourselves into other kinds of creatures during the second yoga class last night. There was an upward facing dog, a cobra, a sphinx, and a corpse. The stretching was tougher to do than last week's, but I didn't feel my breathing as labored this time. Maybe the gym wasn't as warm. The corpse pose was appropriate, because we lay in that state for a little while towards the end of the class, concentrating on breathing and awareness of our muscles and vertebrae. So relaxing. At one point, Helen told us, "You are relaxed but very aware." I was thinking, "Man, I'm this close to drifting off to sleep." Slept pretty well last night and feel pretty good this morning too!
