I still haven’t tried yoga. Too peaceful. I did however just sign up for a modern dance class at Boston University. The teacher is amazing, and I’m trying my best to blend with the thirty plus twenty-year-old girls (and boy). Anyway, yoga and prancing aside, I do appreciate the serenity of a Buddha. When I lived in NYC, the Buddha room at the Met Museum was one of my favorite places for decompressing. Buddha heads (ad sometimes bodies) are popular adornments in homes in search of zen.

screw yoga! rooms like this will bring serenity any day. That modern dance class sounds so cool. I wish I was brave enough to try something like that.
I haven’t counted the Buddhas at Red Lantern Restaurant yet but there have to be thirty more there!
Back in my early days, I did modern dance, but now I do yoga. Kudos to you for signing up for a MD class at BU – which tells me you are in or near Boston. So – have you visited the lovely Buddha room at the MFA? I have spent many a quiet moment in there. It’s worth repeat visits.
