I spent a lot of time yesterday planning. I love to plan. I take out the calendar, set goals and deadlines, write them down, and usually don’t execute. This time though, I am going to execute. I have to break this long streak of not finishing. I found myself talking to myself in the kitchen … Continue reading Mental Malware

Mother’s Day
A Guest Post in honor of Mother's Day-from "The Mysterious G" Holidays are complicated for many people and Mother's Day tends to be one of those "complicated" holidays for us. Kath did not have a "dream" Mother. She had a complicated and complex relationship that ended long before her Mother's death. She does not enjoy … Continue reading Mother’s Day
Money Don’t Spend Itself
We are in Rochester for the weekend, Eastview Mall-ing it. Love this Mall, even though I hate malls in general. But this one has an Apple Store, an Athleta, a Banana Republic, and other retailers that pique my interest. Athleta gives a 30% discount to yoga teachers so that was my first stop. We played … Continue reading Money Don’t Spend Itself
A Good Yoga Week
It was a good week. I feel especially happy about my morning practice at the studio. I have a home practice area, but the studio is really sweet. I love the gleaming hardwood floors, the skylights, even the smell which is combination of floor polish, and witch hazel. I practiced by myself for the most … Continue reading A Good Yoga Week
The Divine Contract
I talked to Jennifer, my Naturopath today. We talk about everything, not just my eczemic ears. After I confessed that my "no coffee" streak is over, and that I like my "Kathinated" self SO MUCH BETTER, we got into the issue of my stuckness about my project and how I can't seem to push "Send." … Continue reading The Divine Contract
Today This Is How It Rolled
This blog is my platform. Every day I step up on it and I say something. I sort of "busk" on it. I don't have a hat, but I do make a bid for your attention. I make an offering. I put something out into the world. Some small thing. Most days less than 1000 … Continue reading Today This Is How It Rolled
Hatchet: Buried.
During April I had a “secret Metta friend.” I picked one of my yoga challengers and every time I saw her (which was every day) I said to her in my mind: "May you be happy, May you be peaceful, May you be free." Free from what? Free from anxiety and worry, free from everything … Continue reading Hatchet: Buried.
Crazy Puppet Blogger
I need to figure out what this blog is about. I am writing it everyday, which is now up to, what? some 70 days in a row? But it still hasn't found its niche or its voice yet. I feel like a puppeteer. I can give voices to different parts of my personality. I have … Continue reading Crazy Puppet Blogger
Sedona Red Clay Wrap
Today I went to Emerge and had a new experience: A wrap. First I was massaged front and back with rough silk gloves garshana-style. Then came the application of the red clay which went on like silk. I was then wrapped, first in sheets, then covered with a blanket, then enshrouded in a mylar blanket. … Continue reading Sedona Red Clay Wrap
Name It!
Yesterday on Facebook I posted that now that it is May, it's time for a new Challenge. Someone commented: "Just name it." And I was thinking about this. I think I am being asked to say something like: "Yoga 5 days a week. No excuses!" Maybe they want me to set up a Facebook accountability … Continue reading Name It!
