Okay. On to homework. When I saw Vinny on Friday, I confessed to him again that I have yet to conquer, er, I mean make friends with, the qi gong pose: Standing Between Heaven and Earth. The longest I've been able to hold the pose is 5 minutes.
So I gave myself homework with his advice. Starting yesterday, I am adding a minute a day to the pose. He suggested, to get me over the hump, to shorten my duration of the other poses. It's hard for me to get more than about 20 minutes before one or both the kids are clamoring for something or another. He also encouraged me to seize the moment wherever and whenever it comes.
Yesterday five minutes, today six. Done :-)

Five minutes seems long to me! See, that's why I don't do yoga. I like to move it, move it!
All I can say is, once you've gotten past the 30 minute hurdle, there are some well-worth-the-effort things in store for you. Go for it!!
