Everything is yoga

Recently, I started a new job, which has cut into my free time significantly. It's also given me a new appreciation for finding time to do Yoga.

For various reasons, at my new job I found myself having to move a whole bunch of stuff around in a crowded room. After working at it for a while, I realized that I was doing some accidental yoga. I was standing on one leg, lifting things and placing them down. I was basically in a heavily modified warrior 3. This moment of realization made me realize how many things that I do on a daily basis are positively affected by yoga. In fact, the majority of the movements that I do everyday, from sitting down in a chair, standing up, to tying my shoes, even typing at a computer have been positively influenced by yoga, I even breathe better. I just feel more balanced and at ease then I have before.

Without even really realizing it, until now.

Namaste,
Matt Blank
