I learned three valuable lessons at hot yoga last night.
- Proof to your classmates that you washed your yoga towel from the week before is to include a baby sock stuck to the towel when you retrieve it from your bag. This also acts as a subtle reminder to Mommy that you deserve 75 minutes each week blocked for your personal health. The sock remained at the top of my mat for the entire class.
- When I sweat, it rolls down my face like I’m in a Costa Rican rain storm. When the instructor introduces an inverted move, the sweat then rolls back up into my nostrils and I am prone to choking. This answers the Neti pot question I had been wondering about.
- When I lost a toe-nail part way through the class, the baby sock made a fantastic make-shift nail-sack.
I wonder if any other “athletes” have had similar experiences?
