Relax, Take a Mini-Vacation

Image
  Relax, Take a mini-vacation 6 days ago I shared my struggle in Learn to Relax classes at learningabout.com and that is still going, but not with my main problem. I was frustrated about the 20 weeks of yoga work, where I trained 2 to 3 days a week for two hours. It is due to my health problems. I did not want to quit the class, though I have been designing for a long time. I had no idea how to relax. I remembered how I can relax when I was at an indoor beach party. My teachers showed me how to relax. I also remember how I would make most of my friends relax that night. Now, in almost all groups, it doesn’t matter what type of activity is happening, if I am present, I am relaxed. When I am not with others, I am relaxed on my own but still not so calm. I am not so frustrated that I work or become frustrated if we talk about yoga, but even sometimes, the small things are not relaxing for me. Having a stress exercise or yoga class is not the solution, it’s the meditative nature of it....
