This was an observation by one of the yoga students at the Windermere Care Centre.
And what fun we are having! We continue to laugh as we do our pranayama (breathing exercises), our stretching and strengthening asanas (poses), our yoga dances (Macarena, Hands Up, Cha-Cha, Hockey Pockey) and groan through the gentle shoulder massage during Savasana.
Recently I have asked the yoga students to suggest the Mantra for our closing prayer. This was Sarah’s suggestion at our Chair Yoga session last week…..
“May we be GRATEFUL”.
