Snowy in Seattle

My family and I decided to take a trip to Seattle. With round trip flights at $100 each, who could resist? We had not had a white winter since moving to California. It was definately worth experiencing. We have been spoilt by the Californian sun and realised how glorious the heat is, when we were back in Seattle.

I visited a hot yoga studio aptly called, 'I love Hot Yoga'. They offer a variety of styles and a multiplicity of classes. I had been through my phase of hot bikram yoga about 6 years ago. It had completely detoxified my 20's. I had been addicted. I have since moved on to Vinyasa Flow.

A good friend had scheduled a date with me at the Vinyasa Power Flow class in a heated room! It was just what I had needed to get my vacation rear end out of the freezer!
The class was packed. I found my space right at the back of the class, tight against the wall. My 3 legged dog had to be transitioned with care.

Being a holiday weekend, the instructor dedicated the class to the teachings of Martin Luther King Jr. The quotes and readings from the writings of this yogi were fitting the time. All poses/ asana had to be performed mindfully  whilst practicing Ahimsa. ( non violence)

I flowed to the music and loved the transitions between asanas. I felt cleansed and renewed after the class. Ready to take on the storm warning.

The next day, my daughter and I, accompanied by her uncle and boxer pup took a snowy walk!
