Green Tara: the next round

Sue and I started Green Tara again yesterday. I've been cleared by the chiropractor to "go hard," although I still need to avoid weighted squat exercises.
Yesterday we did the lower body workout. I felt I was doing quite well find focus and mindfulness (the phrase "tiger-like gaze" kept going through my mind). I tried to remember to Dan Millman's lesson of "relaxed strength." This served me well until that last set of leg extensions, where everything broke down.
Yesterday's menu:
Yogurt and Granola with fresh strawberries
Peanut Butter Granola Bar
CousCous with chickpeas and raisins (not nearly as good as I'd hoped)
Pineapple and grapes
Jicama Salad
Three-cheese torellini
A s'more (which was really too much)
Also, I found an article on DNC in which the medical community discovers that exercise can actually treat clinical depression. Thanks for joining the rest of us.
