blowing up a balloon, out through the nose,
deflating the balloon. Long, deep, even breaths.
Belly rises
and falls.
Relax your mind.”

new to yoga, it might be confusing to
know what style to try.

“On an inhale, lean left. Don’t overstretch, Hester.”
“You’ve got me doing old-lady yoga.”

“We’re taking it slow. Breathe here. Inhale, both arms up, palms touch.
Exhale. Inhale and lean right.
Both arms up. Repeat that twice.”
