You know how you have that one friend who saw some shitty band, like My Morning Jacket, and he just won't shut the fuck up about how amazing and life changing it was? So you listen, and sure there's that one song that was on American Dad, but the rest of it is just bullshit garbage, and you don't want to be a dick, but your damn friend won't stop going on and on about how great the band is ... it's like he's in a cult all of a sudden.
So you finally have enough of it, and one morning you just hit him in the back of the head with a shovel, and bury him in the jacket you were wearing. As the last bit of dirt falls over the shallow grave, you say, "And now you'll spend eternity with ... " you put on the sunglasses and add, "my morning jacket."
YYYYEEEEEEEAAAAHHHHH!!!!!
Hi, I'm Wil, and yoga is my My Morning Jacket.
I did yoga for the first time ever yesterday, and it just blew my mind. I was sweating like Roger Ebert, and I'm as sore as I've ever been today, but the whole time, I felt calm and relaxed, even while my legs were shaking like crazy during a particularly difficult pose.
When I was done, I felt simultaneously relaxed and energized, and I slept more soundly last night than I have in months.
I've heard that yoga is great from people who practice it regularly, but I always thought it was something I'd never be flexible or strong enough to do. After doing it yesterday, I know I'm not currently strong or flexible, but I will be. {Yoda}I will be.{/Yoda}
