Yoga: And Breathe...

Saturday mornings are yoga mornings. I wake up at 6am to go to a 9am yoga class.
Yesterday's class was the most interesting yet, as we explored our chakras.
It's meant to be super fullfilling and relaxing, but as you will see, I was not very relaxed.

It went something like this:
"Imagine. Imagine a triangle with fire inside. Now, become that fire in the triangle."--Will this hurt?
"Imagine. Imagine a circle with green smoke within it's boundaries. Breathe in the smoke."--No thank you.
"Imagine. Imagine lying on the earth. Lying in a field of green grass. Or imagine YOU are the green grass, and your body is the field."--HAHA! (Imagine me, dressed in a grass unitard walking around New York City. Awesome.)
"Imagine. Imagine you are floating in water. Imagine you slowly become the water. Now, float in the water as the water. Just bob around in the water as the water. And slowly, wash away."--I don't understand what that means.
"Look up between your eyebrows. Look hard and look deep."--And now, stick out your tounge and say cheese for the camera.
