Dear Hamstrings,
Are you mad at me? I know I haven’t been paying you enough attention lately. I’m sorry I’m always sitting for long hours at a desk without taking enough stretch breaks. But it’s not very mature of you to stand your ground like that when I finally have a few minutes to practice my Paschimottanasana. Your behavior really hurt my feelings.. and it didn’t help my ego much either. Let’s make a deal. If I promise to stretch with you every night this week, and let you take as much time as you need to open… can we be friends again?
xoxoxoxo,
Erica

Derned desk jobs…don't they realize they get in the way of our hamstring romance?
