The San Francisco International Airport has opened a "Zen Room" for travelers who want to do a little yoga before catching a flight out of town.

Airport Director John Martin officially opened the facility inside Terminal 2 Thursday.

It will be available to ticketed passengers who feel the need to meditate, stretch, or do whatever else one might do to get Zen-like before a flight.

If you are looking for a little downward dog before you catch a plane out of town, the room is in Terminal 2 past security next to the "recompose area." 

It is marked "Yoga Room" and has a big glass door.

There is no charge to use the Zen Room.

Of course, you don't need a special facility to do yoga.

All you need is a little space and a mat.

Still, if you'd like to do it in private, or in the company of other yoga lovers, you now have that option at SFO.

To assist travelers in finding the room, signs have been place throughout the airport showing a person in the Lotus position.

Obviously you don't travel enough lsmith. A quiet room to meditate or stretch would be a godsend. Anything that gets me away from raging lunatics and screaming babies, I am all for that.
