I had lab until 10 tonight so I really needed something to help me unwind today.
What could be more appropriate than the Sun Salutation? After all, summer is coming to a *gasp* close and I feel it's important to celebrate the sun while it's still around. Martha had all the proper instructions on her whole living site, located here: http://www.wholeliving.com/article/sunsalute0107wel.
The awkwardness and difficulty I had doing this is living and breathing proof that I am in horrible shape and it's about time for me to get my stretch on.
See the pictures below for all the instructions you should need. All of this is from Martha's whole living site.
