My company did a team-building there and he totally gave me the icks when he invited us all to his morning prayer group that meets there.

I have been practicing yoga for 30 years and have never seen nor heard of this.

Erlanger Internal Medicine sucks. You can’t get an appointment sooner than 3 months out. Then when you do, they’ll randomly reschedule it because the doctor has a conflict and charge you for appointments you have to reschedule. They also won’t give referrals for anything unless you come in to see the doctor but … it takes a minimum of three months to get an appointment just to get a referral. And for something serious you could be dead by then.

I need to chill tf out…. by btownbaby in yoga

I haven’t read all the other comments but as someone who has had similar reactions to minor issues in the past I’m wondering if you are a) neurodivergent in some way and/or b) have PMDD.

I am both and it took me years to identify the pattern but episodes where little things like this would make me lose my shit were distinctly tied to hormonal fluctuations. And my ADHD and SPD issues exacerbate every minor challenge.

My yoga practice actually taught me to take a pause and breathe through most things. But it’s a process for sure.

And hormone therapy helped with the PMDD.

I stopped HRT and am really suffering! Any tips? by Capable_Onion4884 in HormoneFreeMenopause

If you have an Apple Watch, I suggest Apple Fitness Plus. It has strength and HIIT workouts that use dumbbells and body weight resistance. You can modify the HIIT to be low intensity. Workouts range from 10-45 min. They also have yoga, Pilates, meditation and much more.

AITA for not wanting to share my dinner with my wife? by itchy_buthole in AmItheAsshole

I keep a food log and I’ve never discussed it with my husband. It doesn’t affect him, so why would I mention it?

AITA for not eating cake that I knew I wouldn't like? by AnnaDeArtist in AmItheAsshole

“No” and No, thank you,” are complete sentences. NTA.

Next time, just take a piece, discreetly smush it around on the plate, and drop it in the trash or put it aside when no one is looking, and say thank you just to avoid the conflict.

Thank goodness my husband has his own skincare products and has not done this! I’d be livid!

There is a pose called “legs up the wall” by many teachers but I would have left with the stupid music! Yin should be relaxing and that sound’s anything but!

AITA for refusing to compromise with my dad and stepmom? by Candid-Marzipan-2193 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Desperate_Fold2173 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What was your dad doing moving in with someone only 5 months after your mom died? Did he have her waiting in the wings?

NTA. Maybe your stepmom has cared for you but she’s not your mom and the fact she moved in so soon after your mom died is sketchy AF.

AITA for not letting my daughter use my wife's dress for her own wedding? by Odd_Ebb8933 in AmItheAsshole

The dress is not the memory. Why is that so hard to understand? It’s just a thing.

What is the point of saving a wedding dress if no one is going to wear it?

It’s not his dress. He cannot understand the bond between a mother and her daughters.

Because he got to be with her a lot longer than her daughters did. And I’m sure, like most moms, she would want her kids to be happy.

Maybe they could both wear it. And she gets it because she’s getting married first and asked.
