July 5th, 2012 Just a short note of appreciation today for all that is going on around me. Today daughter #2 and I rocked yoga class. Right after that we headed to the beach for the rest of the day with our friends. My wonderful hubby made us girls a pitcher of sangria to take with us. The . . . → Read More: Beach, Kids, Friends,& Sangria
July 4th, 2012 Since today was a holiday, I wasn’t planning on going to yoga today. I knew last night would be a late night out at the fire, so I thought I’d treat today like a Sunday. That didn’t work because my daughter wanted to go. So I went.
When I got there I tried to . . . → Read More: Cornered
July 3rd, 2012 Today in yoga class, when I was bent over in standing separate leg stretch, trying to grab my heels, I realized it going to be two years that I’ve been doing this pose and I still can’t reach my heels. The instructor says if you’re a beginner, grab the sides of your feet. Well, after . . . → Read More: In Its Own Time – Organically
June 29th, 2012 I have often mentioned that I follow three Bikram yoga blogs – 3 women that practice daily, and post daily, too. It’s great to follow them. I feel like I know them. Lisa Jones, who writes The Here and Now, wrote about an absolutely awful class. She told how she was stomach sick and was . . . → Read More: Not Linear
June 28th, 2012 One of my favorite sayings is “Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone”. I feel that is my home lately. Starting a new business and writing and publishing books are both two zones I’ve never been in before and I can guarantee it’s going to be a long time before I feel any . . . → Read More: To That Edge Again
June 27th, 2012 One might ask, “Why would you ever stop to even ask yourself that question?”. Once again I was moved by the words of another writer. Ariana Huffington was on CBS this morning remembering her good friend, Nora Ephton, who passed away yesterday. (Screenwriter for “When Haryy Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle) Nora was one of . . . → Read More: Why Do I Read?
June 26th, 2012 When I woke up this morning I was a little sluggish – not necessarily tired, but unmotivated and a bit anxious. I knew morning pages and some meditative readings would be a good place to begin turning this day around. Praying for others and giving gratitude began to restore my energy. Then, once again, there, . . . → Read More: It’s Alright
June 22nd, 2012 I have been doing Bikram yoga for 22 months now, five days a week. For 16 of those 22 months nothing was ever sore or ever hurt me between classes. In the last 6 months I have had issues with different muscles. Some days my glutes would hurt. Some days my chin, first one leg, . . . → Read More: Learning About Longevity
June 13th, 2012 Monday morning I was standing in my kitchen with my hands on the counter, looking around while fear and anxiety slowly took hold. Three weeks ago, on a similar Monday morning, the same thing happened. Both Monday mornings were the start of independent projects for me. Getting my book published, and starting a small business . . . → Read More: Tale of a Home Business
June 11th, 2012 Once again the hot room has spoken. I never know which pose is going to provide a new lesson. Last night was a late night at the campfire. My husband and I sat out there until the wee hours of the morning solving the problems of the universe. That was fun, but morning comes quickly, . . . → Read More: Panic Training
