Tis the season to do YOGA!

While some people are still cursing the holiday decor that has been on store shelves since Halloween & the Christmas carols playing overhead in said stores, MY Christmas spirit kicked in, full throttle, over the  Thanksgiving holiday. It may have had a little something to do with all my aunts, uncles, & cousins driving in from all corners of the country to celebrate Tofurkey day (& my fiance & I's engagement!) together in Pennsylvania. All the festivity & happiness packed into that one weekend would be sure to get any scrooge into the holiday spirit! Fortunately (or unfortunately for the bah-hum-bug people), that joy has overflowed into the playlist for my Yoga class this afternoon at a local Catholic high school:

Moola Prayer -- Sudha, Maneesh De Moor
M3 Mantra Remix -- Mark Bell
Carol of the Bells -- The Bird & The Bee
The Nutcracker, Op. 71, Act 2: (Dance of the Reed Pipes) -- Kirov Orchestra & Valery Gergiev
Amazing -- One Eskimo
Moment of Surrender -- U2
One Love/People Get Ready -- Bob Marley & The Wailers
O Holy Night -- Musiq Soulchild
Peace on Earth -- U2
Ganapati -- Girish
Across the Universe -- The Beatles
Silent Night -- Sarah McLachlan



*Being mindful of the fact that you never want to offend, disrespect or alienate anyone in your classes, this playlist, understandably, may not be appropriate for all classes (especially those at larger studios or fitness centers with students of multiple religious backgrounds) but..I'm hosting an after school class for teachers at a Catholic school so, I think I'm safe.

Happy Holidays!
