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
167 Day Yoga Streak Ends
The other day my 167 day yoga streak, the one I kept track of in that journal up there, came to an end. That's almost 6 months of daily practice. Over. I'm sad about it. Really sad. If you're a regular here, you know I write about streaks a lot. I am, by nature, a … Continue reading 167 Day Yoga Streak Ends
Feeling My Mettle
The other night I led Bakasana (Crow) prep poses, but when we got to the actual POSE, I really couldn't hold it for very long. Two of my younger, more bendy students were rocking it though, and even trying advanced variations. I was trying to help them achieve some of these variations, but I couldn't … Continue reading Feeling My Mettle
The First Post of the New Year
It's been a slow day. Kind of introspective. Spent a lot of time going back through archives just to see what I was resolving to do this time last year. This is the day of resolutions and I like resolutions, but I always wind up not doing them. I don't feel bad about that mostly, … Continue reading The First Post of the New Year

Yet Another Post About Streaking
I am currently nursing along a little baby yoga streak. As of today, it's 18 days old. (It could have been 23 days old except that on Day 5, I skipped a day and had to start over, according to The (My) Rules.) I am going up to my home yoga room every day and … Continue reading Yet Another Post About Streaking
The Mark of a Warrior
It has now been almost two weeks since I returned from the Hatha Yoga Pradipika training I took with Yoganand at Jai Yoga in Philadelphia. After that training I started changing a lot of things in my life, namely: my practice, my food, and the intensity of my cardio workouts. In the space of two … Continue reading The Mark of a Warrior
5 Things To Do While You Figure Out What You Want to Be When You Grow Up
I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up until I was 51 years old. When I finally found “my thing" it wasn't the thing I thought it would be, and it certainly wasn’t anything anyone would ever pay me to do. But by that point, I didn't really care about money. … Continue reading 5 Things To Do While You Figure Out What You Want to Be When You Grow Up
Breaking A Streak
My longest streak lasted 428 days. I did Holosync for 428 days straight and then it ended. It was a deliberate end. I didn't just "forget." I ordered what I thought was the next level (Level 3) and when I opened the box, they had sent me just the intro cd. My reaction was: WTF???!! … Continue reading Breaking A Streak
