My work pretty much means sitting in front of a computer all day. While I don't have any noticeable consequences of it yet, I'm aware that it's not great for me. Especially here in Thailand, where I go everywhere by scooter.

That's why I love **Yoga**. Yes, I know, it's supposedly mostly for females. But I don't care. As long as it's good for me (which it is), I'm all for it.

Fortunately, here on Ko Lanta we have a wonderful yoga instructor Hazel, who makes classes weekly on Fridays. I joined in three times already, today being the third time. It was beautiful. We were directly by a lake, while the sun was setting in the ocean:

After practicing yoga, I always *feel great* afterward. I feel much more flexible, compared to the stiff body that I have before practicing it.

What I want to say with this post: **If you sit around all day, please consider trying yoga.** At least one class, to see if it's for you or not. It might feel weird at first, but trust me, your body will thank you.

What I also thought about is that I want to be proactive when it comes to my body aging. That also means doing more exercise in general. I might be only 24 now, but I am aware of the unfortunate fact that it's most likely only downhill from now on.
