Anatomy Lesson

Today I was feeling very "off". I've been put on a new medication that will reduce my anxiety and it seems to be helping since I was actually able to have a good sleep today.

I napped from about 4 in the afternoon until about 11:00 tonight. It was a good sleep and I woke up feeling very rested. But now, it is 2 in the morning and I don't feel very tired at all. I may have to tire out my body by going for a walk or something, but its just so late.

I tried reading a little bit. And actually, that helped. I was reading Yoga Anatomy by Leslie Kaminoff and it is a great book. Even if you know nothing about yoga or don't have a keen interest in even trying yoga, this book would likely change your mind. Its a super easy to follow text book about why yoga is so good for the body. It's unbiased and not spiritual (really), its just the basic anatomy of yoga - hence the name of the book.

Its a great starting point if you want to feel healthier and happier. I want to try and replace all medications with yoga, walking and healthy eating, but of course that is something that would take a long time to do. I have to start out slowly and carefully.  But I will get there! :)
