It’s been a slow day. Kind of introspective. Spent a lot of time going back through archives just to see what I was resolving to do this time last year. This is the day of resolutions and I like resolutions, but I always wind up not doing them. I don’t feel bad about that mostly, [...]

Streaks
I just got home from the studio, where, after Happy Hour Yoga, a bunch of us sat around ate pizza and drank beer and wine and watched a film called YYoga. If you’re interested you can watch the trailer here: http://www.yyogamovie.com/home%20movie/page18.html I love these kinds of movies. They validate my practice, they inspire me to [...]
