Yoga Meditation 4221 Holistic Yoga-End of Day 4

K...nice day today, feeling good.

Some of the young ones were exhausted and had to have a break from the yoga asana's. Huge suprise, myself and friend were thinking we would be down and out for the count, but no! We were still going strong.

Bought lunch today, there's a really good group of shops in the area, nice fresh healthy meals, so a few of us shared lunch.

Woh ... we got off early today so we all decided to go to meditation. It was really, really relaxing to go sit and listen to ancient yoga wisdom and do alot of meditation. A great meal was provided also. I don't know about anyone else but I had the best time. Group meditation to music was so much fun, I thought I was tired but got my second wind while there and found a bit of energy to run around but was really tired when I got home.

*  The question is, why does yoga asanas help us feel better? How does yoga work? As you've probably heard, one reason asana leaves you feeling so good is that it activates your parasympathetic nervous system, thanks to two elements that almost all asana practices have in common—the lengthening and strengthening of musculature and calm even breathing.

Today was the last day of the workshop. Heaps of study and practical to do before the next one in a few days.
