The other day Linda, someone who’s been practicing at my studio for as long as I’ve been in business, announced she’s going to do the April Yoga Challenge this year. For the first time. (This will be the 12th year I’ve offered it.) “Why now?” I asked her. She didn’t give me an answer. I … Continue reading Why Would I Do Such A Thing?

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.

Today I pulled the trigger on the 5th Annual Yoga Challenge (30 days for $30). Sent the email to my mailing list and now I await the flurry of envelopes. I am guessing by this time tomorrow it will be filled. Tonight as we sleep, Spring will arrive. Somebody at yoga tonight said that the … Continue reading The Yoga Challenge and the New Year’s Eve Letter
Day 3: Warm and Sunny
Seven people showed up for morning yoga on this warm Saturday morning, and 12 showed up at 5:30. It was a stellar day: sunny, highs in the 70s. I would have had a hard time showing up on such a splendid day, but they didn't. It is hard to wake up, I must say, mainly … Continue reading Day 3: Warm and Sunny
The Virtual Yoga Challenge
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
