Really soothing, relaxing practice! The sound of the waves & the instructions all go together perfectly with the sequence. Enjoyed that immensely, thank you Melissa!

Thank you - this was great and perfect for a complete beginner. However I have a problem

I repeatedly get little spasms particularly in my back muscles and the little muscles around the back of the ribs. They aren't during any particular exercise/position - just suddenly get a spasm mid exercise for no apparent reason. For example, even lying down doing the breathing relaxation at the end, i had a sudden cramp.

It's not any damage or anything, just general unfitness I think.

However my question is this - should I stay on this day and repeat it a few times until my muscles get a bit more used to it? Or carry on working through the videos and it will all settle down as I work through them?
