Today I slept in, wrote, took a walk with G and Boomer, taught Happy Hour yoga. It was a soft day. It is the first of May and the weather is finally, starting to drastically improve.

I Never Know What to Write About
The question of the moment is: Should I sit here and continue to eat refined carbohydrates and drink coffee, or go to Wegmans for green juice supplies?

Day 1 of the Yoga Challenge
This winter I was on pain-killers, and I got addicted to them. I hated taking them but I needed them to deal with the pain after my wrist surgery. I hated that I needed them.

She became dedicated to her practice, which then started her on a dramatic trajectory of transformation, which is continuing to this day. I asked her to tell me how this all came about, in the hopes that … Continue reading Day 22: An Interview with Jes Ricker
Kicking March To The Curb
I do believe the April Yoga Challenge is now FILLED!! I am so excited. I spent some time this afternoon cleaning, orienting my Sunday teacher to the ventilation system, the sound system, the location of the toilet paper. G worked on the Excel Spreadsheet with all the names and the boxes for each of the … Continue reading Kicking March To The Curb
