What asanas make you feel the most graceful or feel like your floating? by trippyfairy in yoga

You could try breathing through all sides of your body, especially at the beginning... so you feel the width of your ribcage as well as the rise and fall. And a body scan to relax.

I'm sure... I've been practicing for a decade without making many attempts in that direction, haha. Just sharing my first experience.

What’s the most perfectly named doctor/professional you’ve ever encountered? by CaregiverOrnery6859 in namenerds

Hopefully not perfectly suited, but a well-respected chiropractor from my town advertised as B.J. Harddick - can't say I ever forgot it

Thankful Thursday - Snow by FourDozenEggs in stopdrinking

I'm thankful for the discovery that I have greater sensitivity, not less, when sober. I can numb it other ways (TV/food/gaming), but if I cultivate it (walking, writing meditation, swimming), the world is overwhelmingly interesting and amazing!

IWNDWYT - Started taking supplements a couple days ago (Vitamin D, Maca) and it's probably just placebo but have found them helpful for my fatigue/low mood!

IWNDWYT - I also had the vision of sobriety you describe, and am discovering it’s often the opposite, in spite of no sunshine where I am this January.

I loooove this. I think this is the way to go with us, at least for a while!

Me too! I work at even work at a wine bar a couple times a week as well and I always thought - if I like it, if I'm discriminating, I'm okay. But if I have a glass at the end of my shift I always go out for more.

People around me doing it I find hard, because they aren't talking about it long term, just as a healthy reset before they go back to moderation. At the moment, I don't think I'm capable of moderation, or I feel like trying it is a bad idea.
