Yoga

https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/92/66/2e/92662e78095b8dfce2a07ccf93fd8104.jpgMy new way to start and end the day is with yoga. Ok...full disclosure...it's only been two days and each session is only 20-minutes long, but all good habits have to start somewhere and I figure writing it here will increase my chances of sticking with it.

Shortly after I was diagnosed with MS, my neurologist at the time (the second of four, I believe) suggested I practice yoga to maintain my balance. I wish I had listened, but it's never too late. I have done yoga on and off over the years, but never on a daily basis, until now!

I've actually done yoga in some pretty cool places:

In the atrium of the Museum of Fine Arts ("Face the Chihuly sculpture in your warrior pose")
Morning Yoga on the dock at Ponkapaug Pond in the Blue Hills
And, now....in my living room with Rodney Yee's AM/PM Yoga for Beginners.

Namaste.
