Down(ward dog)

Tue, 10/18/2016 - 20:29 -- ayats

When I am feeling down, I close my eyes.

Breathe in, breathe out.

My bare feet cling to the mat as I stretch, hoping to remain still as to avoid exercise, but I push on.

Upward cat, downward dog.

I slowly feel my sorrows lifting with each pose, each stretch.

When I am feeling down, I close my eyes.
