Good writing is 80 percent research, and clearly Karen Moy, our beloved author, has done a great deal of research into the secret world of yoga. It's almost as if she herself signed up for an entire hour of yoga in order to give this compelling story the rich detail that makes it seem so true.
On the other hand, our beloved artist Joe Giella might want to Google "yoga mat."

I hope everyone had a good Free Slurpee Day. I have a couple of weeks off, so I took my son on an errand, and we just happened to pass four 7-Elevens, but we could only handle three free Slurpees. It was a wonderful day.

Mary looks as relaxed as a frozen corpse. And now I know why I don't enjoy yoga...I have been using the wrong yoga mat!
Mary is so relaxed, a name tag emerged on her shirt. If she relaxes even more, who knows what else will pop up on her clothes?
Yoga today, bungee jumping tomorrow (I hope).
I'm glad that Mary "told" us that she was relaxed, or we never would have known.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. Huh? Wha...? Oh, sorry. This "plot" has me quite..."relaxed."
Since when do people do yoga wearing shoes with heels?
@Wanders - Are you sure that yesterday was "Free Slurpee" and not Free "Big GULP"?!? Tee hee...
Please make it stop.
This plot evolution really brings out the "thud" in me.
Savasana: the FINAL relaxation pose. You'll never need to wake up after this...
Moy was so exhausted from the fast pace of the last story that she slowed things down a bit.
Mary appears to be feeling something in panel two, but it doesn't look like relaxation.
Looks more like Shannon is saying: "To avoid undue strain on the neck during abdominal crunches, try keeping your chin off your chest."
Mr. Meg, a certified yoga teacher, said, 'why are they doing yoga on mattresses? And why is Mary's arm hanging off?"
I think Mary's name tag is not the peel & stick kind, but rather is a sewn on label. She probably labeled all of her clothes before she left on her trip.
Where is that scorching falling meteor when you need it?!
Does anyone smell mothballs?
Mary looks so relaxed, she reminded me of the old SCTV ''Perry Como is still ALIVE!'' skit.

Excellent! Shannon already looks irked with Mary's lolly-gagging (or perhaps she's irked that she can't get to that hairy patch on her back).
What on earth is that instructor doing in the second panel? She looks like she's sneaking up close to the lady next to Mary, so that she can yell "Boo!" behind her head just as she gets perfectly relaxed.
Those mattresses crack me up!! Shannon probably told them to take them off their cabin bunk beds and haul them in to class. After she's got them all super relaxed, she makes them drag them back "home", thereby UNDOING the benefits of their yoga session. (It's Shannon's clever idea of job security.) And let's just hope poor Mary doesn't have a top bunk!
Looks like exercise in the prison yard is going well.
Subtle foreshadowing here?? "Maybe I'll see you around"... sounds like Shannon will be the next victim in the cavalcade of misery meddling. She DOES have the requisite black/blue super straight hair, after all. And you do want a recurring character to have easy to draw hair so that the art work doesn't distract from the riveting plot.
Oh yeah, Shannon is in for a world of meddling. The Yogi and The Fogey. Too exciting!
"Maybe I'll see you around." Hoo,hoo,ha,ha.
It looks like one yoga session is it. Did Mary sign up for the "sampler week," where the guest gets to try only one activity and then moves on to the next thing? I suppose Mary will tell Toby, "Yes, I tried yoga, and it did wonders for me!"
I agree, we will see Shannon again. Perhaps Mary will catch her sobbing her heart out.
Just like Charterstone, the Pax Wellness Resort appears to extremely non-diverse.
Make that "appears to be"
Nothing exceeds liks excess. Congrats on the THREE Slurpees!
