So clearly, the #Reverb10 thing is not working out. I do get the prompt everyday via email, and I dutifully paste it into 750 Words and then proceed to write whatever is really and truly on my mind, which usually has nothing to do with the prompt. (750 words, if I haven't mentioned it before, … Continue reading Happy Solstice
#Reverb10: Remebering 2010, Body Integration and Kicking 11 Things to the Curb
Prompt: 5 minutes. Imagine you will completely lose your memory of 2010 in five minutes. Set an alarm for five minutes and capture the things you most want to remember about 2010.

#Reverb10-Catching Up
How the hell did I get 5 days behind in #reverb10? No matter. In the next few days I'm going to see if I can catch up. It's funny about these prompts. I read them each day and my mind goes totally and absolutely blank. But then I open up 750 words, (which, by the … Continue reading #Reverb10-Catching Up
#Reverb10: Day 9 – Party
Prompt: Party. What social gathering rocked your socks off in 2010? Describe the people, music, food, drink, clothes, shenanigans. This is the prompt that I'm going to use my "free pass" on. (There is no "free pass" I just made that up.) But this is the prompt I'm going to just say this about: "What … Continue reading #Reverb10: Day 9 – Party
Reverb10: Day 8 – The Happiness Gene
Prompt: Beautifully different. Think about what makes you different and what you do that lights people up. Reflect on all the things that make you different - you'll find they're what make you beautiful. As much as I hate to admit it, I am my mother's daughter. My mother and I had such a tortured … Continue reading Reverb10: Day 8 – The Happiness Gene
#Reverb10: Day 7-Looking for Utopia
Prompt: Community. Where have you discovered community, online or otherwise, in 2010? What community would you like to join, create or more deeply connect with in 2011? For anyone who knows me, and is familiar with Main Street Yoga, it will come as no surprise that that's where I have discovered community here in the … Continue reading #Reverb10: Day 7-Looking for Utopia
#Reverb10-Day 6: Making Things Happen
December 6 – Make. What was the last thing you made? What materials did you use? Is there something you want to make, but you need to clear some time for it? I want to make things happen, that's what I want to "make." I don't want to make a quilt or a pie or … Continue reading #Reverb10-Day 6: Making Things Happen
Reverb10:Day 5-Letting Go
Prompt: Let Go. What (or whom) did you let go of this year? Why? My first thought was that I'd write about my diet (sugar, dairy, alcohol), or my closets (clutter), but when I dug down a little deeper I realized that the most significant and potentially life-altering thing I let go this year was … Continue reading Reverb10:Day 5-Letting Go
Reverb10–Wonder
Sitting in the Marriott in Shelton, CT this morning getting ready to go to a Bar Mitzvah. There are no words to describe how much I hate these things. I just opened my Reverb10 prompt and the question is: How did I cultivate a sense of wonder in my life this year? And you know … Continue reading Reverb10–Wonder
Small Is The New Big (reverb10 Day 3)
How come it is that whenever I feel most alive I also feel my mortality most vividly? What is it about high mountain ranges that makes me feel so...so... What I feel is small and large at the same time. I feel small on the outside, but large on the inside. I feel the smallness … Continue reading Small Is The New Big (reverb10 Day 3)
