I Love Yoga!

I've had chronic back pain for a few years now. I've tried rest, heat, ice, chiropractors, and various exercises/stretches with very little in the way of positive results.

Then my girl Introduced me to Yoga. I (try to) practice Yoga at least once a week, and when I do so, my back feels amazing. It feels as if I don't have a back pain problem. Also, I feel completely relaxed/refreshed/etc.

When time permits I attend Midwest Power Yoga.

For a cheaper router you could try these: YOGAmazing or Yoga Today; both offer free daily/weekly video yoga workout routines for you to follow along with at home. Did I mention they are FREE?!

acquiesce

I learned a new word today:

"acquiesce" = To consent or comply passively or without protest. See synonyms at assent.

USAGE NOTE When acquiesce takes a preposition, it is usually used with in (acquiesced in the ruling) but sometimes with to (acquiesced to her parents' wishes). Acquiesced with is obsolete.
