I am of one the happiest people I know. It’s taken me a long time to get to this present state of happification, but I am definitely here now. And here to stay. This evening I walked into my studio after what seemed like weeks of being away (it was only 6 days), fell down … Continue reading If The Shoe Fits

It’s All Good
I am sitting on the first leg of the return flight home from Portland. It is the day after Thanksgiving, and the plane is not too full. I am in the middle seat, and in the window seat next to me is a woman with a small child on her lap. (G is on the … Continue reading It’s All Good
Stuffed
My friend Jerry recently commented that he’s managed to say the same weight since college by always staying a little bit hungry. This is also a yogic eating principle. You are supposed to eat to only 80% of satiation. There should always be 20% of emptiness in the stomach after a meal. This way of … Continue reading Stuffed
Greetings from Portland, OR
The sun is shining and there are roses blooming on the bushes beside the deck here. What? Roses? The day before Thanksgiving???!! I’ll take it! It was a long day of flying yesterday. Elmira to Detroit. Here I am sipping a Chai Latte in the Detroit airport, still smelling fresh, looking good. And then … Continue reading Greetings from Portland, OR
Da Plane, Da Plane
Blogging first: I am sitting in seat 21 E (Window) of a Delta jet, flying somewhere over the middle of the country, blogging. There is Wifi on this flight. Free Wifi no less, compliments of Ebay, to all Delta flyers this holiday season. I was just now composing an email to Emily when she popped … Continue reading Da Plane, Da Plane
New Computer
Today I got my new computer and I’m working on it now. I got a MacBook Pro 13 inch laptop. It’s sweet, but it feels weird. The touch of the keys is really different, and I kinda miss the grime and the filth and the crumbs in between the keys of my Dell. I’ll get … Continue reading New Computer
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 … Continue reading Streaks
I Wish
I used to have a massage therapist who was a yoga teacher. I miss her. She was terrific. Not only did she have amazing technique and intuitive abilities, but after my bodywork session, she would sit with me and tell me which postures I should do to keep myself un-kinked and open. I wish everyone … Continue reading I Wish
Can I Help You?
Last weekend I went to Rochester specifically to visit the Apple Store. I need a new computer and have always had PCs, but the time has come, I think, for the big switcheroo. I know, I know… So to all you “too cool for school” Mac people out there? (You know who you are.) Here’s … Continue reading Can I Help You?
Full of Win
I got up and went to yoga early this morning. First time in 2 weeks. Do you know how many postures you can do if you can’t forward bend? Not. Too. Many. I got all entranced with Plank. As well as Side Plank. Child’s pose was good, too. As was Downward-Facing Dog (with bent knees). … Continue reading Full of Win
