If you have some extra time on your hands for reading or listening to an audio book, pick up this one next. A few months before my hamstring accident I had just started doing yoga consistently. I’ve been an athlete and a personal trainer, but yoga was the only exercise I had ever managed to do *on my own, on a daily basis*. I needed a practice to help me stretch, strengthen my joints, and slow the f down. And then along came Meditations from the Mat, which showed me yoga is so much more than getting into impossible poses. It’s a lovely read.
