This afternoon, I attended a detox class at my yoga studio. I was half-hoping it would teach how yoga detoxes the body, and it kind of did that, but it mostly focused on how to make the lifestyle change of daily detox. Thankfully, it wasn't all about ramming vegetarianism or vegan lifestyles down your throat.
