Started dabbling in advanced yoga sessions - both harder and longer. As I peeled myself off the floor this afternoon, I got to listing my favorite things @abicarver has ever said to me…

Because nothing else matters
“Lie back in final resting pose”
Aww, I forgot that one! And “you have nowhere else to be.”
'You are one with the universe."
Ha! Pretty sure this one isn’t in there.
I think that this would be a better poll if it was called “What Abi would really say to you if she was there right now watching you do this.” I know for certain she’d say 'You know what, Dave, let’s forget about reaching for those toes and focus on, oh, knees. Knees are good. Let’s go for reaching for your knees."
Surely it must be “relax into the pose” 
Haha.
“Yoga is supposed to be relaxing, but somehow, watching you attempt it is making me angry!”
Also good!
“Umm…you can’t transition into final resting pose from downward dog. We’re not there yet.”
I lose my focus at that point and start singing the song in my head 
“So close, no matter how far” is probably appropriate for many of us when it comes to trying to replicate @abicarver in yoga…
All of these Metallica references are restoring my faith in humanity!
IKR?
This is my favourite!
I wonder if it is better if I don’t see
Once seen, cannot be unseen!! 
LIES! It’s like “breathe into the pose”!!
You know for a fact that when Grunter von Abi says either of these things, it gonna hurt, and it’s gonna keep on hurting and it doesn’t matter if she says relax, breathe or scream into the pose, it’s still gonna suck Yak baIIs!!
My favourite is when her true self is revealed and she says just hold the pose for a few more excruciating breaths. If you listen really carefully, you can almost hear her evil laugh in the background!
Actually everything Abi says is relaxing! For me it’s within the first sentences that I realise that I am calmer and breathe more deeply…
But my favourite is certainly: …nowhere else to be…
