    Anyone for yoga?

    When I first started with Yoga I almost gave up, as I found the pain nearly unbearable after a few simple stretching exercises. I was then advised to take it really easy and gradually build up my strength. So, I did the recommended poses ever so gently and focused on my breathing. It took me a...
