Meditation Reflection: Honestly, that was really calming. I felt like I was able to reflect on my day and it helped me destress.

I felt like I was able to let go of the things that had been making this week kinda hard and that was really really nice.
Meditation Reflection: During the meditation I could really feel my feelings. I felt very grounded.
Meditation Reflection: calm. I don't know how else to describe how I felt. I found it engaging, but in a way that is calming, not just like an engaging lesson.
Meditation Reflection: I felt very relaxed and cleansed.
What did you learn about yourself? I think something I learned about myself is I really need to try before I give up. Because in the beginning, I wasn't really sure about it, but the more I just relaxes and really tried, it felt a lot better.
How do you feel after yoga? I feel grounded. I am very inflexible so when I do yoga I am very uncomfortable. by the end, when I was done It felt very nice to not strain my muscles. After I felt sort of like I was being reborn.

Thinking over the whole unit, what did Rebekah do well as a teacher? I think she did a really good job explaining everything, and making it clear how everything she was teaching us about is connected. Also, she's a really really, good yoga teacher. That was the best part for me, and I thought it tied all our learning together at the end.

My Journey: I have never enjoyed yoga, I guess my journey began here, with this class. this is the only time I have ever gotten close to enjoying yoga, in my entire life, and I guess it wasn't to bad.
Meditation Reflection: It was so great, I really enjoyed and found the flower visual very easy to see, engaging. It helped me a lot since I'm getting over a cold and breathing through my mouth doesn't help. It helped me calm down.
