Exhale

Exhale - our flight was on time.
Exhale - the sun was shining in LA
Exhale - Josh picked us up at the airport.
Exhale - Olivia had cookies fresh out of the oven when we arrived.
Exhale - We walked to sit  OUTSIDE for coffee, sort of stretch our legs and enjoy the surroundings.
Exhale - the name of the  yoga spa we went to for Yin + Restorative Class in Venice, CA.

It was WONDERFUL! Josh and Ed were a little stiff and needed some extra attention for the instructor (much to their chagrin.) Olivia and I were pros, LOL. but overall what a trip! Truly a CA experience. Everyone was kind of doing their own thing as we tried to follow the instructor precisely. You us Midwesterners, always trying to do the right thing.

She wanted the yoga mats placed randomly or organically or however the mood hit you because we fit in the mold too much during our work day and for the creative process to flow we need to get OUT of the lines, the straight and narrow. (So we tried to alter our space just a little.)

We held poses for a long time, we listened to chimes and gongs, and we breathed.

I loved it.

It was a great Welcome to California experience.

I can't wait for tomorrow.
