Have you ever considered the saying “In like a lion, out like a lamb”?
Of course most people understand it to refer to March weather especially here in New England, cold harsh weather in the beginning of the month giving way to the warmer temperatures of Spring at the month’s end.  But it seems as though we might use that same saying to refer to our  yoga practice. How many times have you rushed into Metrowest seconds to spare before class begins, frantic and stressed out from your work day or family craziness, like a “nor-easter” blowing into the studio?  And then after an hour and a half of yoga you crawl off your mat from svasana, storm’s gone and a lamb has taken its place!
In like a lion, out like a lamb!

Namaste,

Shawn
