Tammy,<\/p>\n
I went to your class today and I have never laughed so much in a yoga class; not at you, but at yoga and with you.<\/p>\n
There is no Super Bowl for yoga; it is a non-competitive activity (except perhaps in India).\u00a0\u00a0 If yoga isn\u2019t going to help American adults get somewhere, why do we practice yoga?\u00a0 You don\u2019t serve beer and the incense you burn is not magic mushrooms.\u00a0 In the \u201cstudio\u201d you create a freedom for us to laugh at ourselves when we can do a pose well, and for us to laugh even more when we don\u2019t even come close to the attempted pose.\u00a0 So yoga teacher of 14 years and inciter of laughter, what is the feeling I had today in your class?<\/p>\n
On the way out of your class, I got in my car and it seemed like I traveled a couple of miles on autopilot.\u00a0\u00a0 Inexplicably I had a hankering for some potato chips.\u00a0 Then I heard a siren.\u00a0 I looked in front of me, nothing.\u00a0 To the left, nothing.\u00a0 To the right, nothing.\u00a0 Yep, you guessed it.\u00a0 Right behind me I saw the cherry tops flashing.\u00a0 I pulled over and the cop said to me, \u201cdo you know why I stopped you?\u201d\u00a0 The words that passed my lips:\u00a0 \u201cActually officer, I have no idea.\u201d\u00a0 He then put his whole head inside my car, looked me straight in the eyes and said:\u00a0 \u201cAre you high?\u201d\u00a0 Quickly I realized the cost of my first yoga high:\u00a0 $15 for the studio and $85 for running a red light with a cop right behind me.<\/p>\n
