Social Question  cinnAmini's avatar  Is it normal to get

and feel great. Lately, even when I’m in a great mood, I will

yoga postures. It isn’t the physical movement so much that
triggers it…rather, it’s like the yoga asana itself is releasing
pent-up, hidden feelings. Am I nuts?!  Observing members: 0
