My streaks are starting to become hard and wearying. I am struggling with the yoga and I am struggling with what to write each week on the blog. The yoga is hard because of the time commitment and also because a lot of the practices are physically hard to do, and continue to be hard … Continue reading Slow Gardening

The First of 94 Days
Today is the Summer Solstice and I have decided to do a summer Project: 94 day of Yoga. Here is the video I took after completing 108 Suns at the studio this evening.
I Think I’m Done
On July 1st I started writing my book here in short blog posts. This was “Step 1” in the strategy to overcome my resistance to putting my work out there. The plan was to use my blogging streak to chunk out the book. And you know what? I think I’m done. Today when I sat … Continue reading I Think I’m Done
Why Streak?
Why do anything, really? Why go to work? Why have another beer? Why take a vacation? Why take a nap? “Why?” is a great question because the answer to “Why?” will reveal what you believe. Simon Sinek has a great YouTube and an equally wonderful book called Start With Why that I highly recommend. Check … Continue reading Why Streak?
Streakers Do It Every Day

I am noticing that I am a lot more comfortable with silence now. I am learning how powerful it is. When someone stops talking … Continue reading I Hear You

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!
Getting Tired of This Detox Life
So it is 3 weeks today of this austerity diet and I am getting tired. Literally tired. I want one cup of coffee. That's all. One cup of coffee in the morning. But then last night, I also wanted one glass of wine. One glass of wine. In the evening. Is that so bad? But … Continue reading Getting Tired of This Detox Life
Elimination Diet Begins Tomorrow
I have no idea what to write tonight. This is my 34th post in a row. I started out on February 18th, Ash Wednesday, with the goal to post every day until Easter, which I believe is April 5th. But tonight I am hitting the wall, I am scrounging for content. But I will not … Continue reading Elimination Diet Begins Tomorrow
The 1 Thing I Am Good At
Yesterday I completed Day 750 on 750words.com Milestone, I think. No badge for that, but still, the symmetry pleases me. The one thing I am good at is sticking to things. If I commit to it, I do it. It's the one thing my friends and students always say they wish they could do, too. … Continue reading The 1 Thing I Am Good At
