Crouching Tiger Upward Facing Dragon

During an interview with my 76 year old patient, she insisted I feel how firm her quads and glutes are. She then proceeded to show me how flexible she is by doing this move, repeatedly, in the consulting room:

A few other things I learnt from my enlightening hour with this lady:
  • Honey never gets old. Historians have found honey in tombs with mummies.
  • Apple cider vinegar can cure many ailments.
  • "Ink is better than think" (particularly helpful if you presenting with signs of dementia)
  • Muslim people are meticulously clean. Meticulously. And also generous.
  • My thighs feel like jelly compared to hers.
That's all.
