Okay, so tomorrow begins the 3rd Annual Yoga Challenge at my studio. Some people have expressed a desire to do a Yoga Challenge at home, and participate "virtually." I think that is a great idea, and I want to support you! If you want to commit to 3o days of yoga for the month of … Continue reading The Virtual Yoga Challenge

Kicking March To The Curb
I do believe the April Yoga Challenge is now FILLED!! I am so excited. I spent some time this afternoon cleaning, orienting my Sunday teacher to the ventilation system, the sound system, the location of the toilet paper. G worked on the Excel Spreadsheet with all the names and the boxes for each of the … Continue reading Kicking March To The Curb
The Weekend Wrap-up
The 8 Mile Run: We ran our longest run training run so far on Saturday. It was originally scheduled for 8 AM, but at 8 AM it was 18 degrees so we switched it to later in the day. We finished, thanks to great support from our"crew" and for me, to the great story-telling and … Continue reading The Weekend Wrap-up
I’m finished with Holosync
Right before I left for my training, my new level of Holosync came (I am starting Level 3). But this time when I opened the case expecting to find the usual 4 CDs, there were only 2. There was the first one, and the 5th one called "Floating," which I don't ever listen to. This … Continue reading I’m finished with Holosync
Yoga Challenge
In 6 days I will open the 3rd Annual Yoga Challenge at my studio. I'm getting excited. Every day I go to my mailbox and tons of envelopes fall out. (I've asked people to register by mail this year.) So far, 45 people are registered. (I'm taking 60.) Lots of people are talking about it, … Continue reading Yoga Challenge
Productive Pain
It felt like my body was made of rumble strips as I lay on the massage table today and LauraLee tried to smooth me out. I said, "I'm really trying not to seize up and armor against your touch, but it's hard." She said, "It's okay to experience some productive pain." That concept of "productive … Continue reading Productive Pain
One Blessed Day to Transition
I am getting better at this transition thing. Used to be, I'd get home and just hit the ground running: start wash #1, answer emails, make phone calls, teach my classes, start wash #2, grocery shop, run errands. Used to be, I'd know, intellectually, that my trainings would be intense, but I'd tell myself it … Continue reading One Blessed Day to Transition

Exhausting. In that sweet, playful, social, and deeply enlightening way. I've been home for just a few hours. Can I … Continue reading Placeholder Entry
Day 2 in Yoganand’s Playground
It's fun, but exhausting. As expected, we attempted all kinds of impossible postures today, and it was really quite amusing (and somewhat alarming) to see what is actually possible. I partnered with Kim for the morning and we had a blast doing (or approximating) Mariachyasana and Locust and Supta Baddha Konasana. It's very playful, this … Continue reading Day 2 in Yoganand’s Playground
YTT Day 1
I am sitting in the Best Western in King of Prussia, munching on Mary's Gone Crackers, sipping water and reflecting on the day that is coming to a close. There are a lot of things on my gratitude list so let's start there: 1. Sun. Today was sunny, mild, and totally life-affirming. I drove east … Continue reading YTT Day 1
