Teacher's Disclaimer: anyone who knows me knows that I get high on life, body work, teaching, laughter and the study of smells. In the above photographic depictions, I recommend the non-abusive way to enLIGHTening your body-mind-spirit-emotions ... if you have any genetic predispositions towards alcoholism ... stay away from the bottle. And, while you can drive after yoga, have someone else drive after you've been imbibing. Also, there are more homeless than ever, so help out in your community.
