Leslie, I think you are ahead of the curve with drinking cups of tea, and stretching at work. I've noticed how range of movement improves, not with trying to push how far you can extend a stretch, but to simply relax into something comfortable and prolong the duration. Doesn't this also seem like a metaphor for so many things in life? It does seem like the muscles take a while to elongate.

We held positions for a long time, much like yoga. I found that at the beginning of the class, I couldn't touch my toes. But, after an hour of stretching, I could do so easily. They no longer have the class at the Y, but I do leg and head stretches whenever I make a cup of tea at work: my waiting-for-the-microwave exercise spot. I used to go to a stretching class.

I think you would also need the Google player. My only request is not to edit it. Enjoy. Nathan,

I've tried various forms of meditation and getting my mind to be calm is quite difficult. Somehow it is much easier while doing this exercise. It's got to be not only the simplest exercise but the simplest form of meditation. I felt diffenet afterwards, calm, balanced, ready to resume my day. I agree it is like meditation.
