“The word "yoga" literally means "uniting", because when you're doing it you are uniting your mind and your body. You can tell this almost immediately because your mind will be thinking, "Ouch, that hurts," and your body will say, "I know." And your mind will think, "You have to get out of this position." And your body will say, "I agree with you, but I can't right now. I think I'm stuck.”

Nicqui This is exactly how I feel about yoga, with a few, "ouch, that hurts", and a few "why am I punishing myself" thrown in.

I've never done it myself, but it seems to be the opposite of relaxing. XD
