Hard day at work? No motivation for the gym?
 Yoga and Tai Chi are GREAT for the stresses of mind & body
Calories burned per hour: 270 calories burned
Which is the same as...: 
- 1 Grande Starbucks Cafe Latte 
- 0.4 of a McDonald's Big Mac with Cheese
- 3.4 glasses of wine (3.5 fl. oz.)
- 1 Snickers bar
- 9 carrots
   
       So not only does it burn calories, but it's a great way to end the evening. You'll sleep better. There are othr benefits too... including increased flexibility, increased connection with your inner self, and increased confidence. So don't go to bed stressed and unhappy, pop in a yoga or tai chi video and relax.
