Yoga -- great stress reliever!

Okay, healthy-healthy tayo kunyari...Bobby, Kiko and I joined the gym --- oo shocking I know. Maybe not really for Bob and Kiko at active naman yung dalawang yon e, but for me? This is really a huge step and commitment! Well, anyway the monthly fees were quite reasonable. The gym may not be as fancy as 24 Hour Fitness' facilities but they have practically anything you would need, well don't take my word for it, I'm not exactly a health buff so...well anyway, they have daily classes: kick-boxing, spinning, yoga and lots others.

I decided to give yoga a try last Tuesday, I was skeptical at first coz I tried it once, we have a DVD at home. Nakakainip sobra! I didn't even have a mat so I used whatever was there that was used by everybody -- oo nakakakilabot, so if ever you try it, bring your own mat-- I don't think it costs a lot. Anyway, the warmups were fine --  I thought ok, this is easy. When we started to move along, pahirap na ng pahirap. Sometimes I couldn't even do it. Well what would I expect? But the instructor kept iterating that it is not a contest --- you should listen to your body --- naks...ok so I just did what I could but still minsan nanginginig na ako sa hirap. But afterwards? Wow ang sarap ng pakiramdam! I really felt relieved of a ton of stress...I could fall asleep right there.

For folks who do not want massages bcoz you don't like the feeling of someone touching your body, this is a great alternative.
