Open Question: I used to do yoga and know about breathing and balance. I will be taking horseback riding lessons. Advice?

I am right now not in the best condition and know the horse I learn on will be reacting to my body's breathing and signals. This will be the first I'm on a horse in several decades - since I was a kid. So those experienced riders out there, during my first few days - what will help me and my horse most. I am concerned too because I am not at an ideal weight right now and have short legs so even adjusting stirrup length, I want to be able to relax and not be super nervous about falling. thanks in advance for the help. Are there specific stretches or yoga moves I can practice to help me get ready for this new adventure?

Open Question: Can someone explain to me why I'm gaining weight when I excercise everyday ?

For the past few days I've been doing cardio workouts such as jogging for half an hour at around 5:00 p.m. & at night I do planks, lunges, squats, jackknifes, push ups, yoga, & pilate moves around 11:00 p.m. I've been eating 6 meals a day. I've heard hummus is healthy for you so I've been eating it a lot lately. I read the nutrition label yesterday and it said that it had 6 grams of fat. I've been doing some mid night snacking lately. I snack on dry cereal & pretzels w/ hummus (pretzels w/ hummus one night, dry cereal the other) I read that midnight snacking doesn't make you gain weight unless you eat healthy & one of the suggestions for a midnight snack was hummus. What am I doing wrong ? And can anyone give me a good diet plan that I can go on to shed a few pounds ?

Open Question: Weight loss question?

So I'm trying to lose weight, and I wanted to make sure that the diet and exercise plan I've had for the past almost 2 months is really going to work. I exercise every day for about an hour, sometimes more. From Monday through Thursday I take fitness classes (a different one every day; a muscle toning class and sometimes yoga on Mondays, Pilates and Zumba on Tuesdays, Yoga and about 30 minutes on the elliptical on Wednesdays, and Zumba on Thursdays) and since I have class most of the day Fridays and Saturdays I usually just do about 30-45 minutes of cardio on those days, as well as on Sundays. I also eat no more than 1200 calories a day. I started this plan in mid-June, and now it's the last week of July and I went from 143 pounds to 133 pounds. My goal is to reach 120 pounds, with this diet and exercise plan do you think I will achieve that goal and about how much longer do you think it would take for me to reach this goal? Thanks so much! I'm also 19 and about 5'3.

Open Question: Is my pouch natural? How can I get rid of it?

I have a pouch. Not a very big one, but just enough to make me self conscious. The thing is, I exercise! Abdominal toning, cardio, yoga, etc. Alas, every time I look in the mirror, it's still there! Is my pouch just natural, or is there a way to get rid of it?

Open Question: Do you think Hinduism in India would wither as the country climbs up the prosperity ladder?

The same happened to Christianity in west. As western countries grew prosperous Christianity faded.. The reason I am asking is majority of the Hindus I am working with in Information Technology are just Hindus for name-sake..They just identify as Hindus..but dont take it seriously at all.. They are mostly like agnostic atheists..They dont have any respect (or) devotion for Hindu Gods\Godesses Note: By Hinduism I dont mean Yoga.. Yoga is just exercise..

Open Question: has anyone been to dahn yoga? If so what have you paid for classes?

I love their classes but hate their sales techniques and how they take advantage of people. I would like to throw out the #'s they give to people so we can hace an advantage when negotiating for prices.

Open Question: What is this yoga mantra?

I went to my first kundalini yoga class and I don't remember the mantra they did in the beginning.I think it translated as "I call upon the wisdom in me" and "may the darkness in me turn into light".
