Ham-sa. Breathe in. Breath out. Slowly. You’re doing good. Now continue to chant your meditation phrase, because you’ll need it. On Saturday, the pudgy man himself, Buddha (not Santa), will smile down upon you as you purposefully contort your body into pretzel-like positions that the Indian Kama Sutra originally intended for sex. Don’t worry: Other attendees of the fifth-annual “West Palm Yoga Day” at the Meyer Ampthitheatre aren’t going to giggle when you go into the downward dog.
