这几天因为久坐身体又不舒服了，赶紧去上瑜伽课。每次忙起来就忘了要运动，等到身体不舒服的时候才想起来。疼痛是身体提醒我们要休息了，但是经常是发生的时候已经来不及了，要花很多时间去恢复。中国人经常说“身体是革命的本钱”，真的要好好照顾好身体！

These past few days, my body felt uncomfortable again because of sitting for too long, so I quickly went to a yoga class. Every time I get busy, I forget that I need to exercise, and I only remember when my body feels uncomfortable. Pain is the body reminding us that we need to rest, but often when it happens, it is already too late, and it takes a lot of time to recover. Chinese people often say, “The body is the capital of revolution.” We really need to take good care of our bodies.
