1:1 Monday, February 18

Client: Same heavy woman, smoker. This is our 3rd session.

She arrived and announced that she had lost 4 pounds since we started. That she notices that her diet has changed and she feels better than ever. As I have mentioned, this has become my favorite client. She reminds me of the magic of yoga. I was inspired to share aspects of the sequence that Tucker had taught us during the "Yoga for Life" Training.

We work together for 90 minutes.
