I finally talked myself into going to Yoga on Friday. Looking back at it it does seem like a wierd thing to do- sitting in a room with two women bending and stretching in different ways!!

It was actually pretty interesting. We started by lying in the dark for a few mins relaxing, then we did some breathing exercises and then loads of stretches- perfect exactly what I need to calm me down and relieve all the stress and tension from my body.

I need feel a bit funny going there, but I know that my muscles are really tight and full of tension and this is the perfect way to resolve it.

Plus, I get free membership to the gym cos I volunteer there, so the classes are free! Plus, it helps me to fill up my mornings before work so that I don't sit at home on the computer so much!

I just hope that I keep it up.

Well done !!!

I love yoga and after a few more sessions I bet you will be able to feel the tension pulling out of those muscles! :D

I am a Yoga fan too. I have been going for 2 years now, and it does get easier. Have you tried Tai Chi? I started only a few weeks ago and it is soooo relaxing. The class I go to is for the 'Over 50s' men as well as women. It is a morning class so you get that feeling of calm for the rest of the day.

Same as Helen, I brought a DVD and book a few weeks ago, but not realy done much with it. But after reading your positive post, I'll also give it ago.
