<p>My advice?...RETIRE!!! <br>
Ok, sorry ... I'm being bratty.</p>
<p>There's always meditation. You can do it by yourself in your own home at any time...and it has many of the benefits of yoga...just not the physical aspects as far as the stretching and strengthening of the muscles. <br>
I'm a huge fan of meditation. The inner peace that it brings leads to multiple health benefits and to an improved life in general.</p>
<p>I'm looking forward to seeing everyone next year.</p>

<div>Dear Alana,<br><br>Glad you enjoy it. I have a
number of friends that sing yoga's praise. Just need to retire - and I do
plan to fairly soon. East Hartland sounds idyllic! I always thought it was a
lovely (though somewhat remote) area.<br>

<div>I just had to let you all know that we really have not
changed in all these years. I was at my normal Friday yoga class
this morning and was putting my things away. This woman comes in
for the next class who looks very familiar. She comes up
to me and said Barbara and I say you are and then Nanny
co? I could not believe it. Her daughter lives here and
moved near the yoga studio and she goes when she is in town. I
am there all the time and we had never crossed paths before. It
was especially nice since I miss Buena coming to visit as her
daughter and son-in-law moved back to CA.<br></div>
