Ha @StarGirl I've been going to yoga classes for nearly three decades because I really enjoy the challenge of making my body respond to odd instructions. Bend over, put your arse in the air, deep breaths then move into a lunge. The ''woo hoo' side of it leaves me completely cold. Get the fuck out of my head with your 'breath into your feet' nonsense. I either lie there rigid with disapproval or leave before meditation time.
The people I'm paying have to understand that this is not a personal insult and when they say 'listen to your body and do what suits you' I take that as affirmation that I can do exactly that. Embrace the parts of the practice that you and leave the rest.
I am getting better at lying still, but I suspect that is because I'm generally exhausted and will embrace any chance to rest. I still don't like them trying to puddle around in my brain.
