1. When you say the thermometer is next to the heater, do you mean it is near the actual heat source, or it is by the control panel of the heater?
Yes, there is a thermostat on a table in the back of the room. The heater is above it in the ceiling

2. What kind of heater is in the room? Is it ducted air or infra red panels or maybe underfloor heating (the least likely )? The heater hangs from the ceiling so Im guessing forced hot air? There is also a humidifier type of thing in the corner opposite the back heater. I hope I am explaining this right.

3. Is there one sole outlet for the heat or are there are number of outlets? there are two of these ceiling mounted heaters in opposite corners.

4. Is the thermometer wall mounted or on the floor? At what height is that ornery thing? The thermometer is on a table – so at about waist leve.

5. Just to get your brain thinking otherly: What other activity to you engage in for your exercise? I’m modderately active. I also go to the gym 2/3 times a week and go on the treadmill and lift weights. I had been doing yoga 1/2 times a week before the episodes started 🙄

6. Are you overweight, underweight, or ‘normal’? I am overweight- 5’5 160lbs.

7. What is your level of challenge/struggle/ease with the poses themselves? Depending on your answer we could explore some important general principles to assist you!!!
I am taking a beginner class, so I am not struggling at all. I am however NOT very flexible at all but never allow a pose to “hurt”.

8. What is your breathing capacity like? Does it feel like you can breathe in and keep breathing in? Or do you find it difficult to breathe deeply? How difficult?
I think my breathing capacity is good. Our instructor makes us focus on our breathing. I am sure at times I am focusing more on doing the pose correctly, than breathing deeply. My focus on breathing generally happens at the beginning and end of class.
