87 Thoughts That Run Though My Mind While Doing Yoga

I have not practiced yoga in more than a year and I've finally had the courage and time to do it. Since I got married, I have been making excuses and have not done anything to keep my body fit.

Last Tuesday The Husband had a basketball game and I've finally decided to start doing yoga again by enrolling at Yoga+express Legazpi.

In just 60 minutes, eighty-seven thoughts ran through my head. If at anytime in your life you've done yoga, read through the list and please tell me I'm normal.

1. Should I go in or am I too early?
2. OMG there are so many people, where do I put my mat?
3. Did I pull my mat to close to that girl?
4. Do my feet smell bad?
5. Don’t fart.
   
6. What do I eat after this?
7. Did I drink enough water before working out?
8. Do I have to pee?
