A beginner class that caters to all levels. Monday evening tends to be a good time to recover from the weekend's workouts. I like the spin that the instructor takes on the poses, her stories, and the level of comfort that she provides to those of us who aren't yogis. I never feel self conscious here. But yoga does something else cool. It can take me out of my head.
Now, I don't mean this in some sort of crazy supernatural sense. I'm rather type A (cardiologist, triathlete, vegan... no, really?). I have my lists. I have plenty of internal chatter in my head, things to do, issues to solve. Sometimes, yoga helps turn that chatter off. And, with that peace, every so often, something that was previously burdening me becomes clear.
That happened to me yesterday evening in my Basic Flow class. Even while on call, with my cell phone clandestinely in silent mode poking out from under my mat, I felt a certain clarity. That clarity helped me make a decision today, and with that I am relieved of a stressor that was burdening my mind
