The Year of Fun #21: Yin Yoga Workshop

Another group activity today, this time: a Yin yoga workshop. Why all the group activities, you might be wondering? After all, isn't this an INTROVERT'S Year of Fun? It's true, as an introvert I do value my alone time. Oh boy do I value it. And if I don't get enough of it, yes, I become a grumpy, tired and all around unpleasant person to be around. Which works out because then I can have my alone time again. But one thing I have become aware of in this Year of Fun (also, can you believe we're nearly half way through?) is that I ALSO get a lot from group activities. That is, I get a lot from certain group activities. In fact my range of pleasure from group activities is incredibly limited, but it's also incredibly intense.  Like a laser beam of fun, rather than a ceiling light. One thing that made me realise that I ought to give more group settings a try is being in ceremony back in Peru. I LOVED that intimate group setting.  Just being in a circle in a dark room that smelled nice probably did a lot for me. However, you're also probably aware by now of some of the groups that haven't been to my liking, notably the intense and arguably unfriendly Charleston gang, as well as the happy clappy hippies of the holotropic breathwork. Not for me. So this week I decided a yoga workshop, a yin one at that, would be more to my taste. For one, it was an activity I was already familiar with. For two, it was going to be in a small group, I had guessed less than 10. Plus it checked off my classic introvert-friendly time limit of 2 hours. Perfect.   Show notes here
