Relaxing is hard work

Whoo. I just got back from a restorative yoga class - admittedly my first class in a couple years or more. I forgot how difficult it is not just to assume a pose but to abandon yourself to it. The class lasted forever and it was over in a heartbeat. One pose almost made me cry to try it, and another brought such relief to my lower back it was amazing. Mental note: stretch more, think less.
