 Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE!
Shortly before her yoga class was scheduled to begin, Lisa walked the short trip from her office to the Multi-Purpose Room. She'd set up the room earlier, but now it was time. Wearing her trusty yoga pants and a sleeveless exercise top, she walked in, smiling individually at Rosemary, Lucas, and...what was Airey wearing? She supposed it was more suitable today's activities than his usual attire, but she still thought it looked a bit eccentric. Then again, he seemed like an eccentric man from their previous interactions, so maybe she shouldn't have been surprised.
Lisa took a seat, cross-legged, on her yoga mat at the front of the room, facing the others. With a brief wave of her wand, she lowered the volume of the music playing. Then she set her wand to the side, where it wouldn't get in the way. "Good day, everyone," she said serenely, closing her eyes to focus. "Let's get started with some breathing..." She opened one eye to check on the door, which she'd left open in case there were any stragglers.
"Imagine a string attached to your head, pulling you gently upward toward the ceiling and lengthening your spine," she said, her voice gentle but loud enough that Airey should be able to hear her from the back corner. "Inhale through your nose..." she demonstrated, breathing in as she counted silently to yourself. "And exhale..." She repeated this a few times. "Be present in your body, and just focus on your breathing." |
