Yoga for Mai

I'm sitting in front of the PC with my legs throbbing from my Yoga session this morning.
I actually started yoga-izing (yeah yeah I know...I just invented the word) last week, but have been delinquent with my daily practice, so I was pretty much at the point where I started.
The lessons are getting to be a bit challenging. The compound stretch "Sun Salutation", the twists, and balancing on one leg were a quite difficult to do, especially as Sister Malati (the yoga teacher) says to do it with ease and effort. Quite a contradiction, but I am starting to understand what she means.
Still, I am beginning to enjoy myself, as even the breathing seems to calm me a bit. I try to imagine myself inhaling a breath of flowers and light, and exhaling all the black yukky pissed off smog inside me.
It works you know :)
Now I have to figure out how to make my nice post-yoga mood last all day.
