Learning Challenge, Pre-Finals Prep

I used the learning from by the HEART challenge. I really enjoyed reading the article, 6 Yoga Exercises you Won't de Embarrassed to do at Work, because I find myself often getting so tight and uncomfortable from sitting at my desk everyday. The exercises consist of shoulder rolls, open chest stretch, neck stretch, chair twist, reverse prayer pose, and twisted arms. All of these easy and simple exercises help relieve neck, back, and shoulder pain. I found these exercises to be extremely useful and help relieve stress held up in my joints as well. I am glad I found these exercises because my neck gets extremely tight when I sit at a desk or table for long periods of time. I will continue to do the neck stretch and shoulder rolls as often as I can. They have helped relieve pain from my neck.

Week 7 Story: The Miraculous Mirror

Once upon a time, there was a sun goddess, whom was high of the heavens named  Amaterasu. She was known to sit in the middle of the night weaving a web of Doom. In which, this web of Doom was so big and symbolized the characteristics of joy and dismay. Amaterasu's weaving lead to Izanagi's daughter showing up.
