The article discusses how a unique cue, 'big udders,' during a Pilates class revitalized the author's practice of Cow Pose. Initially embarrassed, the author found that this humorous cue helped release tension and enhanced their physical experience of the pose. The realization that such a simple image could evoke profound changes in their body reinforced the importance of fresh perspectives in familiar practices, emphasizing the need to approach yoga with enthusiasm and openness.

The Pilates teacher went on to describe her first experience hearing the cue from her yoga teacher. She, too, had initially thought 'big udders' was silly.
