Friday Morning Yoga Club

The Friday Morning Yoga Club met this morning at the Doorstep Bakery. This is a great group of moms that enjoy yoga exercise and visiting with one another. To be honest the visiting with one another is probably the better part of the Friday Morning Yoga Club.
The stretching and limbering up of tired muscles through simple, relaxing yoga postures is beneficial and certainly helps to improve our ability to meet the day and all the challenges that will be presented. It is always nice to see how we have improved over the course of a week. A posture that seemed impossible last week, is more doable the following week. Practice makes for better yoga.
However sharing the time doing something we enjoy is all the nicer because we are able to learn so much from one another, encourage one another, and relax for a time before returning to the demands of family and life. Each mom is unique and brings that lovely uniqueness to the mat and our time together.
After we exercise we like to have tea and perhaps something from the bakery. This morning we enjoyed currant scones and Earl Grey Tea.
I look forward to the weekly gathering of the Friday Morning Yoga Club. Apparently others enjoy it as well because we are planning on moving to a larger facility that will afford us more room and the opportunity to provide free babysitting for those of us with small children.
Though yoga is certainly a fantastic way to exercise so that one can stay active and in the game of life, having good friends to share life with is probably the most important element to ensure that one  stays in the game.
Exercise and good friends just naturally goes together so does a cuppa tea and something warm from the bakery oven. Have a great week end.
