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
The Stories We Subscribe To
I found myself in an Episcopal Church this weekend for a memorial service for a friend’s mother. It has been a long time since I was in a church. There were kneelers and hymnals and a prayer book. There was a lot of talk of “our lord,” and “our savior,” and “our redeemer.” I was … Continue reading The Stories We Subscribe To
Sacred Writing Pants
I have sacred writing pants—pants I only wear when I write. They’re grey Aeropostale sweatpants with a yellow stripe down the leg. They’re about 7 years old. They were once my daughter’s and were so ratty even she, of the grunge generation, didn’t pack them when she went to college, so I stole them. They … Continue reading Sacred Writing Pants
Professor Mike
This morning, late as usual, I put on my yoga clothes, slipped a hoodie over my shoulders and walked out into HOLY SHIT IT’S COLD OUT HERE! But the sky was perfectly clear, and there was just the smallest sliver of a moon with some amazing star or planet hanging right next to it, like … Continue reading Professor Mike

What’s Holosync?” So this post will be my “answer.” I’m not going to go into what Holosync is, though. You can find out about it here. Suffice it to say that it is a … Continue reading Hooked on Holosync: The Top 6 Reasons Why I Do Holosync
Getting through the April Yoga Challenge
Lots of people have been asking me: How are you going to DO this?? How are you going to survive teaching 78 classes in 30 days??!! I say: It's about energy management. I say: It's about getting enough sleep. I say: It's not really that hard, I groove on the energy of it! But it's … Continue reading Getting through the April Yoga Challenge
I am happiest around purple things
Just when I thought I couldn't bear winter another minute, this. Oh my.
A Letter From My Self
This past New Year's Eve I hosted a free Yoga Nidra class at my studio. A whole bunch of cool people showed up, even though the day was bitter cold, and it had even snowed a few hours before, and the roads were very much less than ideal. I remember I even thought of cancelling … Continue reading A Letter From My Self
Space Chair
I have a "Space Chair." Do you? Everyone needs a Space Chair. Virginia Woolf claimed every woman needed a room of her own. I don't really need a room, all I need is my Space Chair. My Space Chair isn't something I ordered from Brookstone. It doesn't give me a Shiatsu massage. It doesn't vibrate … Continue reading Space Chair
