Wednesday Nights

Wednesday nights has quickly become a time our family looks forward to. Since we have attended Watts Street Baptist Church (month or so), the children look forward to eating dinner at the church and then attending chorus/class. They seem to enjoy mixing it up with the adults and children. It is starting to feel like home.

After getting the kids settled in class, we had an option to attend a book discussion or yoga. Both sounded really interesting, but we decided to do the yoga. It was a neat experience. They discussed meditation, breathing, and how yoga can prepare you mentally for meditation or study. We walked through some techniques and at the end I really felt like it was something I could do ongoing. Something apart of my lifestyle to help slow me down and bring me to a calming place to relax, pray, or study. It was mentioned they plan to do classes monthly.
The class mostly full of 60 somethings. That sounds weird but it was kinda neat to. I miss my parents and grandparents a lot and having some wiser folks around is comforting. Plus, they don't laugh at me when I am in a downward dog position...
