Yin Yoga

Although I hadn't done it for years, my newly found love for legit yoga classes is something that is making me quite happy these days. I like that I never know what we are going to do in a given class and so there is always an element of surprise and wonder when I go to the studio (something that I didn't really get often with Youtube yoga videos). So yesterday I went to a Yin Yoga practice and although I wasn't as in love with it as some other people in my group, I was quite pleased with the amount of time we spent meditating. My mind has been very busy lately and it really needed this peace and quiet for a little while. I had never been to a yoga or even a meditaton class where we would all sit cross-legged and chant 'OM', but that's exactly what happened yesterday. I laughed quietly under my breath, as that was happening because it is such a stereotypical method of meditation, but eventually I eased into it... I still prefer a more mindful, quiet and focused medittaion though.
