Week 1/14: Yesterday was my first time ever doing yoga. I am used to running and eating healthy, but I've never done any exercises similar to yoga. I was surprised with how intense yoga is. I really enjoyed yoga and I hope to be able to gain more mobility through this course. I am not too flexible and I definitely feel it today.
As this is my final blogpost, I'd like to reflect on this great experience. Between the karma project, essays, and the yoga classes I attended throughout the semester I have had a new appreciation to the emotional, spiritual, and physical benefits from yoga. I not only have felt more relaxed and rested, but my anxiety seems to have diminished because of practicing. This class I went to this week was similar to the previous classes. Sandy focused on the crow position and sirsasana. Everyone in class this week have been going to her classes for a few months now so there were no newbies. She was trying to let us hone these positions. Overall this class has been a wonderful experience and I've actually decided to declare a holistic health minor now because of this. Because I am a nursing major, I had only been exposed to the biomedical approach to healthcare. I now have a new interest in the alternative and holistic health approach. Have a great summer!
where did you go? can you give me more description about your observations while taking your first class??? What did you do that was so intense?
