Today when I entered the hot room, a group of my friends were set up congregated in the third and fourth rows. I decided, after being forced to vacate my front row left corner last Friday by the teacher, I would venture into the back row today. Of course, I headed to the back right . . . → Read More: My View From the Back Today I spent a lovely afternoon in South Dennis attending a presentation by Nicola Burnell, publisher of Cape Women Online magazine, about the four classes she will be offering this summer. The classes deal with exploring your creativity, being the author of your own future, writing stories that define who we are, and finishing a . . . → Read More: No Expectations Absolutely beautiful morning on the beach. I have warm sun, sparkling waves, and even a couple of soaring parasailors. In front of me, just on the shoreline, a piping plover skips and flitters along the water’s edge. I know it’s an adult because the babies are still incubating in their eggs in the nests on . . . → Read More: It Really Is All About “Trusting the Process” Today I walked into the hot room and set up in the second row. A friend came in and said, “Are you sure you don’t want to go up front?” She wanted my spot, but she also knew I’d spent the better part of the spring in the first row, in the corner right up . . . → Read More: A Little Off-Balance Yesterday was one of those days where bad news of death, misfortune, and broken relationships hit me from all sides, along with those “I’m not talking to you!” “Fine!” conversations. A day that would be normally deemed high drama. And now, just flashing at the top of my screen, Donna Summer just died. (RIP Donna) . . . → Read More: It’s Not Drama! Who Knew?

Name a problem and I'll have the fix. And if I don't, I'll die trying to find it. Once in awhile, on Twitter, the Oprah flipboard will have something that catches my eye. Today it was a post by Martha Beck on "Overhelpers Anonymous". Overhelper is the word that . . . → Read More: All The Answers My friend Shirley, who is attending Bikram teacher training in LA, is doing a wonderful job blogging weekly about her experience there. Her blogs are detailed and give me an exact picture of just what teacher training involves. I cannot believe how hard and grueling it is. So much so that it just reinforces what . . . → Read More: Break It Down! Today is Mother’s Day. If I remember correctly, my mother never let me wallow in self-pity. It was always “pull up your boot straps, stop sniveling, and get on with it!”. Last year, on this day, I was beginning my first steps of recovery from my unexpected loss of her, so I dedicate this post . . . → Read More: Time To Share the Positives |
