Silent Yoga!

Tonight I took a silent Bikram class. It was absolutely amazing. The instructor just says the name of the pose, begin, and change. The room is completely silent and everyone moves together. In the silence, it almost feels like a group dance.

By the middle of the standing series, I found myself completely alone . . . → Read More: Silent Yoga!

Further Fixed!

Today was a busy day filled with inspiration for my mind, body, and soul. The soul part was attended to by my Wednesday morning women’s bible study.

I’m on day 4 of my 10 day reset of the P.I.N.K. Method of weight loss as featured on Dr. Phil last Monday. The first ten days you don’t do the exercise CD’s. You follow a very strict plant/protein diet for 10 days to reset your metabolism. Then there are three phases of adding foods . . . → Read More: Day 4/10 & I’m Amazed

One Day At A Time, Rockstar

Days one and two of my nutrition reset went well, so I was ready to wake up this morning and rock day three. First, I woke up at 7 am – half hour late, but that was okay. I only need the protein shake and it’s in plenty of time to have it two hours . . . → Read More: One Day At A Time, Rockstar

What Shall We Shed Today?

Awwwww…maaan! Today begins the weight! Obviously trying to shed the 14 lbs in October didn’t work and much harsher measures are called for. I was bobbling along on and off my own diet plan without much direction. I knew as it got closer, December would present the challenge again because I gave the weight problem . . . → Read More: What Shall We Shed Today?

Languidness

After my languid day yesterday, I drove back to the cape today. When I got here I got groceries, put my stuff away, raked leaves, put away lawn furniture, and…went to 6 pm yoga.

There’s something to be said for languidness. Paying attention to what my body needed yesterday and practicing that self-care, made . . . → Read More: Languidness

Relief!

This week my meditation has been about working on The Basics. What I learned today touches on what I was writing about yesterday. Yesterday I wrote about self-appreciation and self-care. In my focus on the basics this past week, a lot of what I read was about taking care of oneself being a basic step . . . → Read More: Relief!
