Angry Tree


Every time I drive by this tree, I think to myself how angry it looks.  Look at the bottom branches.  Angry or not?

The Sun Salutation

I've been wanting, well...really needing to go back to doing yoga.  My body misses it and I love how it calms me.  I remember a time where I faithfully did, The Sun Salutation each morning.  I had been reading Deepak Chopra's book, Perfect Health, back then and found an awesome guided step-by-step instructions in the book.  I do recommend the book, there is a lot of great information regarding general health.  Chopra.com


For my purpose of this blog though, the following illustration works better on the page...
