Do It. Early morning yoga.

While looking for a place to practice yoga in my new town, I found some excellent yoga videos on YouTube that are full-length practices.

The video below is an excellent practice for the mornings, and the best part about it, you can do it at any hour and there's no embarrassing walk of shame if you have to cut out early to go to work. And it's free. There are all kinds of yoga videos on YouTube that you can do in your own home, but they vary in quality and length.

The downside is that there's no trained professional there if you do a move incorrectly or risk injuring yourself. But all the moves are standard yoga stretches, so even the most intermediate person should be able to do these exercises safely.

I like this video a lot and often do it in the mornings.

An excellent way to start the week off. Happy Monday!
