I’m lying on the floor, drenched in sweat. The room is dim. I can hear the sound of the pouring rain and the sweat rolling off my face and shoulders drip, drip, dripping on the mat. It’s over. My eyes close to the smell of lavender being sprayed in the air and immediately  I focus on a little spinning swirl of light in my head… red with yellow in the middle, like a hurricane radar map. The more I relax, the more it smooths out surrounded by a pale blue ring. The music changes and swells up and down and I hear children laughing in and out like they’re all spinning on one side of a merri go round. One of them is my daughter, and I distinctly recognize her joyous laugh. I feel my face relax and smile. Happy. Peaceful.

It’s good for my body.

it’s good for my mind.

it’s good for my mood.

it’s good for me… and so that hour I just used… It’s good for my children, my husband, my coworkers, my friends and my patients. 

Do it for them. Do it for you. Do it.
