One of the best things about summer in New York City is all the amazing free stuff to do. Festivals, concerts, outdoor movies… a cheap and entertaining summer is totally doable if you’re organized about it.
Last night I joined some friends from Social Workout, old and new, for yoga in Bryant Park, sponsored by the amazing Lululemon.
Daniel met me there after work. This was his third yoga class ever, and he enjoyed it—even though we were directly facing the law firm where he used to work, which he said was a bit weird. You have to admit, though: it makes a fantastic view from savasana.
I for one loved it. There was a nice breeze and the refreshing smell of grass every time you took a deep breath. It was challenging, mostly because it’s difficult to balance on uneven ground. But how neat is it to find your drishti during tree pose by gazing at a tree?
I even met another blogger, Ali of Ali on the Run, whose blog I adore—read her thoughts on the class. The internet is so good for making connections with other health-minded people.
A few of us went out for drinks afterward, another good thing about the city in the summer… so many good beer choices. Two Founders Porters later and I was a pretty happy lady.
Daniel and I were supposed to head to the Jersey Shore for the weekend but our plans fell through, and you know what that means: I get to play with my Vitamix all weekend. Expect recipes very soon.
Happy holidays, friends.
