March 30th, 2012 After all the reading and writing I’ve done since I started this blog, I found worrying is the topic that most worries us. Just this morning I found myself reading the the ticker tape running along the bottom of the screen while watching the news.

March 29th, 2012 Yesterday I read an interesting blog posted on our Bikram Yoga Cape Cod Facebook page. It was entitled Move Your Mat.

March 24th, 2012 When I used to go to the ocean one time every year for vacation, I would, along with my girls, leap from the car without unloading a thing, burst open the front door of the cottage and run straight through it, out the back door and just stop. Stunned. Stunned at the majesty of the . . . → Read More: When I Used To Go To The Ocean
March 23rd, 2012 It’s been a rough week. Lots of appointments and commitments, but also some revisiting of old ghosts.

When you’re vulnerable, things you fought and thought you came to terms with in . . . → Read More: Ye Ole Neighborhood
March 22nd, 2012 Today in yoga we had a guest teacher who shared a fascinating story. She told of someone who had completely obliterated their ankle. They had it put back together with a lot of screws and plates. Then they did Bikram. Sitting in fixed firm pose completely healed the ankle. The plates and screws began finding . . . → Read More: Nuts N’ Bolts

The words of the the old Sunday school children’s song applies as much in my adult world, as it did in my childhood one. When I was 8 I thought it meant share your faith . . . → Read More: Don’t Be Small
