Yoga-tastic

I’m now back at work and things are good. I have two new flatmates for the next couple of months and lots of extra activities planned. We had our first yoga class tonight from a qualified yogi, Shiva. I thought he was great. It wasn’t an energetic class, just gentle movements which were fully explained and sitting in a variety of positions. I find it all fascinating, particularly how different positions can help with different ailments. For example sitting on your knees for 10 minutes after each meal means you will never get digestion problems again. This is definitely worth a try for me out here! He had a very soothing voice and I felt relaxed and invigorated at the end of it. So much so that I still had the energy to come back and make some parkin this evening. It was the first time I have made parkin and the lack of scales was a problem. I tried to resolve this holding a 100 gram box of cheese in one hand while trying to discern if the amount of flour in a large plastic bowl was roughly equal to two and a quarter times this weight. It turns out I must be gifted in this area because the parkin is delicious – how have I not discovered it before now?
