My first yoga playlist
Like riding a bike or taking a step, there is some visceral memory of the first time you make a yoga playlist. At least, that's my conclusion having just uncovered my first yoga playlist, and found it remarkably similar to the one I came up with a few days ago. It's like my body remembered liking to move to these songs without my brain really knowing it as a fact. So, you'll see some similarities to the earlier post this week. What was nice, however, was remembering some goodies that I had forgotten. Thanks, iPod for holding so much memory, literally and figuratively!
