I Might Try Yoga. Yes, Really.
I gotta admit that I’m overworked. I’m sure a lot of us are. For someone who’s supposedly FUNemployed, I stay mighty busy. With my clients and Red Pump work. I find myself working through most weekends. My sleeping schedule is MURKED! I’m the one going to bed when everyone else is waking up. My circadian rhythms have been dropkicked through the goalposts of life. Sometimes I find myself so tense that my shoulders are by my ears on some cartoonish stuff.
Anywho, my girls Julia, Renisha and Adria suggested that I try yoga. They said it’ll connect my mind and soul and sooth them. I’ve always considered it too. I’m not a fan of exercising (yes I’m one of those). BUT I have really considered yoga. I might take them up on the offer.
I came across this video and iCackled.
ROTFLMAO! “Ooooooooooo-praaahhhh” Why am I really about to use this as a guide? “Yoga for Black People” is genius. LMAO at the ending credits saying “Special Thanks. Black people.” Hehehe
Anyone else do yoga? What do I need to know? Tell a Luvv!

Never done yoga, but I do know this vidjo was funny as HEYELL! Montana Fishburne..I bout died!
I love it. It really does relax you, makes you more focused and serene and ish and it’s a good workout! You’ll feel a bazillion times better.
ROFL I just signed up for a yoga class on Thursday. Will keep you posted #Hijinks
I did Yoga for about 6 months, and yes, its a helluva workout. And it will calm you down. If you have FITtv (or whatever the fitness channel is), try that. My advice: get a good mat, bring plenty of water, a good towel, and remember to breathe. It is a lot of work, but a lot of fun. It does calm you down. It will be worth it.
I practice yoga. I do Kriya Babaji Nagaraj Yoga and Vinyasa Flow (like power yoga/cardio) I write a blog about it called Mista Jaycee’s stretchin ouuuuut http://www.stretchinout.blogspot.com
I enjoy it and feel relaxed. My Wife has joined in too.

“The R. Kelly pose…hope you don’t get pissed on..”
The Kimora pose was rude as sh*t…but true. LOL!
Luv, yessss. Yoga is the truth. I do a sunrise salutation every morning and bikram yoga as much as I can. Yoga is life-changing. Yep.
that was effin genius.
that chick said. K. F. C. floored. wait, i should say Tupac.
i’m being forced into trying yoga by my mother who is concerned about my stress levels as well. i’m no fan but i’m open. though…i prefer my activities to be absent the “stinky white people.”
I like certain kinds of yoga. Tried hot yoga once (yoga in a 100-degree room)…NEVER again, but some people like it. They say it’s cleansing….
Hot yoga sounds like a hot mess and the death of my relaxer. No ma’am!
Lawd. Anyhoo I love yoga, I love doing dun salutation and just sitting and meditating. It’s very relaxing.
Peace, Love and Chocolate

I’m in college and I do yoga. It’s very calming and has spared many ppl from being throat chopped by me.
I celebrate every Thursday on Twitter with #ThroatChopThursday it is very therapeutic!!
Luvie you’re a mind reader O.O I was just thinking about starting yoga today too. But then I remembered the last time my best friend took me with her I damn near tore my hamstring off trying to keep up with her. I dunno. Maybe I was doin it wrong? In any case, if you go I’ll go 😛 lol
Definitely try yoga. I think you’ll like it. I suggest trying different studios, teachers and styles to see what resonates with you. As you know, I teach/practice yoga and have seen the benefits on both sides. I definitely know that your post-yoga commentary would be pure hilarity. So you have my support on that on multiple levels.
I love Yoga!! But I like her spin on it… but you can’t be laughing in Yoga you might split the wrong shit!!
