Morning trickle

Turns out morning flow is more of a haphazard semi-structured stretching session than a yoga class. The instructor seemed flustered - she couldn't remember names for poses, and she kept getting right and left mixed up. And she had us arrange our mats at an angle which completely threw me off. Not the calm, peaceful, graceful yoga instructor I'm used to. I was also the youngest person by at least ten years.

One good thing, however, was that we did do savasana at the end, which I think of as a kind of meditation.

Yesterday (day five), I continued with the meditation podcast -- this one was called 'Calming the Body'. They said at the beginning that it could be done lying down,so I did, and it was getting close to my bedtime when I started. Suffice it to say I woke up at 3:00am with my socks still on (I absolutely cannot stand sleeping in socks), headphones still in my ears, and the light on. I guess it worked?
