A Small Observation

I've been attending yoga classes fairly regularly now for about 2 1/2 months. I'm happy to report that I can see the physical changes the workouts are having on my body. And I'm certain the breathing exercises I've learned help me to remain calm and collected during times I would have otherwise gone nuts (like tonight when my car started acting up and the "check engine" light came on. Guess I'll be dealing with that this week while breathing deeply).

But today I realized I've gained an added, unexpected benefit...

After class this afternoon, I hit the ladies room before the 20+ mile drive home. As I was taking care of business it occurred to me... I was hovering effortlessly!! You know what I'm talking about, ladies!

Utkatasana, or "chair pose", REALLY has its perks!
