The soft thud of the yoga mat hitting the floor was followed by a deep breath. Chloe was in her element, the familiar poses easing any tension from her shoulders. She loved her morning yoga routine. The steady rhythm of her breath, the feeling of her muscles stretching, always left her feeling centered. She was planning to meet her friend for brunch.
