It is really hard to recommend a specific MMO game, because everyone likes something different. A game I like you may hate. Check out http://mmohut.com for a gigantic list of these free mmorpg / mmo games. I use that site to find new games to play. Every few days I try a new game :) – It’s a lot of fun because I try everything. They have like every single MMORPG categorized nicely with reviews, screenshots, videos and more. Heck they even list the game’s system requirements!. Best part is all the games are free, which rocks.

http://mmohut.com/browser-games
They have a huge section for “no download” browser MMORPGs as well.

Let me know if this helped at all.

Question by Aquarius17: Can yoga therapy help a person who has tight muscles, especially on the outer side of the legs?
Possible arthritic conditions in the knees as well as weak core muscles. How long and how often does the person need to do yoga therapy before the benefits will be visible. Also, is it necessary or alright to continue to consume health supplements or medicines.

Visible benefits show up different for each individual, the need for continued health medicines are stickily up to your doctor, but I would recommend health supplements always. Yoga is known to help many arthritic people, so continue until you are satisfied.

Question by Thinh Nguyen: Will eating a bag of chips a day raise my bodyfat %?
When I say a bag of chips, I mean one of those 50 cent bags that you bought in elementary school that has only around 170 calories.

My mom bought a whole bunch of those bags of chips and I’m really temped to eat them.

My workout routine consists or running in the morning for 2 miles and pilates (switching everyother day), weights and plyometrics in the afternoon (switching everyother day), and yoga every night. Saterdays I have off.

After my afternoon workouts, I usually have a protein shake, rice, and some asian meats. Will adding a bag of chips be horrible for my bodyfat?

Also, my goal is to lower my bodyfat %.

Answer by Thatkidd.
Of course it will… Chips are chips. 170 calories… But how much oil and grease have they absorbed?
I suppose it all depends if you want to lose weight quickly…. or slowly.

Question by Birini: What to think or visualize during a yoga session?
I mean is there anything to visualize or think about during yoga and pranayama where we do yogic body postures ?

Eventually you should be able to get to a point where you don’t really think about anything – your mind is kind of blank, only in the present, and you don’t think of anything outside of the room.

However, actually getting to that point is easier said than done.

Focusing on one spot on the wall/floor/mirror can help – if it is a mirrored room, particularly looking at your eyes or one spot on your body can help. It is easier to zone out if you are staring (more or less) at one point. Also, if you notice your mind getting really distracted, then just telling yourself to relax and let it go can help.

Some people find it helpful to use a manta, which is just repeating a phrase or two inside your head. It doesn’t have to be anything in particular – it could be as simple as “Stay present.” You might find as well that you use specific mantras for individual postures, reminding yourself to push the knee back, keep the arms straight, etc.

If visualizations work for you, then I would visualize the posture you are currently in, but in a deeper form than what you can currently achieve.

Namaste!
