I just watched Lavendaire. She’s really cute. She's living a life I think a lot of people of her generation dream of: YouTube star. She dispenses wisdom, and makes that wisdom look trendy and cool. Her wisdom is legit, though. This is not a diss. Today she was talking about 5 habits that you must … Continue reading Taking Inventory

But the thing I really like about her, and why I will wait in her line even if there’s a faster … Continue reading The Personal Touch at Wegmans
I Hate That Progress Takes Time

I want a sign: something, anything, that will encourage me to keep going. I am attached to outcomes. I am a very bad yogi … Continue reading I Hate That Progress Takes Time

The Ultimate Yogi is 108 days of power yoga on a set of 12 cds that you rotate through. Each cd runs an hour. I tried to do this once … Continue reading The Ultimate Yogi
