I started to add a daily coping tip to the SQLServerCentral newsletter and to the Community Circle, which is helping me deal with the issues in the world. I’m adding my responses for each day here. All my coping tips are under this tag.
Today’s tip is to relax your body and mind with yoga, tai chi, or meditation.
I love yoga, and I tell the kids I coach that I wish I’d gotten into it at 20 years old. I haven’t done tai chi, though I would like to try. I struggle with meditation, but I have friends that love it.
I try to practice yoga 3-4 times a week, most of the time in a group class. I see beginners in there all the time, and I applaud them. I can’t recommend it enough. If you don’t want to invest in a class somewhere or you feel embarrassed, try a Yoga with Tim or Yoga with Adrienne class in the privacy of your home.
For me, I’m heading to the gym for a yoga class.
