Yoga!

I have joined two yoga classes at work for this semester. One is on Mondays, run through the UBC IT department. The other is on Wednesdays, and will be offered in my unit! I applied for and received a healthy workplace grant. It's one of the things I love about UBC - there are so many opportunities to engage in a healthy workplace and lifestyle. I haven't done yoga consistently in a long time - wish me luck!

Flood at MOA

On Tuesday I went for my lunch time walk on campus and found myself outside of MOA. Look how lovely and mysterious it looks in the fog!

I have been inside MOA for yoga many times, but never saw these totem poles outside close up.

Then I learned yesterday that there was a flood there! Check out these pics (from Twitter):

They say the collection is ok but oh boy, there will be a lot of clean up.

Like/Dislike

I like: foggy days on campus

I dislike: showing up to yoga, not knowing class has been cancelled.

Ah well, at least the view was dreamy and lovely. 

MOGA

I'm back on the yoga train and back at MOA.

And look, the sun came out in the great hall!

Back on the yoga train

I'm back on the yoga train! I have signed up for another session of yoga at MOA, that starts next week. And yesterday I brought my sister to her first class! We did hatha at yogacara on Fraser Street. I love this studio because they provide all the equipment, the limit the class to 12, and the teachers are awesome.

My sis snapped a pic of me on the mat before the others arrived:

I haven't been to a yoga class for a couple of months and I don't know why I stopped. I had a fairly stressful afternoon at work and would have skipped the class if I hadn't already made plans with my sister. But I'm SO glad I went! I felt great and ohm'ed the stress away!

Last yoga at MOA

This past Monday was my last yoga class (for a little while) at MOA. It's been a real treat doing yoga in the great hall of the Museum of Anthropology.

They are offering summer classes but I couldn't commit to the time and date. Hopefully I'll be back in the fall!
