Going to your first yoga class might be a little weird, but what isn't weird the first time you try it? Your first day at a new job was little weird because it was new - you didn't know where things were, you didn't know peoples' names, and so on. There was a lot to remember and learn, but you survived; you got connected and got comfortable. Developing a yoga practice isn't really painful, although your poses and routines will be grueling at times.

Rather, the practice of gratitude is about consciously taking time to be grateful for all the good things in our lives and altering our perspective to focus on that gratitude daily.

I've been a Fitbit user for some time now, and it took me some time to get the hang of its unique features. I checked on the main website and some other forums, but I learned most of what I know by experimenting with it. I've written this short guide to help the new Fitbit user. This is an honest assessment of my experience. There are some things I would change, which I'll come onto later, but overall I've been very pleased with it. I hope you in turn find some value from this guide, and make the most of this fitness tech.
