Winter

Changes

June 2, 2017 The Ponderer1 Comment

There was a substitute yoga teacher today.  I was more than a little apprehensive about this.   I am so very new to yoga and did not want to be pushed (too much) past my comfort zone.  It turned out fine.  She had some familiar poses and some new ones for us to try.  Some… Continue reading Changes
