Life is chaotic at the moment – and that’s an understatement! My sister and her family are visiting from abroad and, while it’s a lot of fun, we’ve also been busier than usual.
Fortunately, they’ve been here many times so we don’t have to do the “touristy” things. However, we have relatives and mutual friends who live here and of course they all want to get together, usually over a...
I have been complaining for months about not being able to make it to Yoga classes. I have been agitated by the erratic energy among my team in the office, as well as the clutter all around me - in my house, in my office - which all in all is my life.
So what do I do? How do I shift all the energies again and create flow?
What are the simple steps -...
What was I thinking? Well, obviously I wasn’t thinking - or I would never have let the DVD out of my sight, never mind out of my house!
Let me explain. Last week, a good friend of mine and her husband came over for dinner. Great company, great time. After dinner, when the husbands went off to watch the hockey game, my friend and I settled down for coffee and a chat. Continue Reading: My “Gift of Yoga” Withdrawal!
Remember when I told you a while ago about a friend of mine who’d become totally hooked on yoga and wanted to take some classes with me?
Well, we finally took our first class this week and – wow! Talk about competitive! I’d never seen that side of my friend before and couldn’t decide whether I was amused or irritated! (more…)
So I attended an interesting Yoga class the other day.
It was my first experience with Yin Yoga. I love the concept of holding asana anywhere for about three to five minutes. Aaaaahhhh...to allow my muscles to melt into the pose.
The experience was...well, like I said...interesting. I liked the philosophy that it is based upon, but I think I was more disconcerted by the instructor and the delivery of the...
Wow – my return to Yoga is quite the journey.
This is my third class back. My body is feeling a bit better each time, as I’m getting reacquainted with each movement.
Has it been easy? No. Not at all! Like everything in life, we learn things and, when we have been away for a while, we have to relearn them, so it takes time to get back into...
I had a phone call from one of my friends the other day – one of the women who had tried yoga at my house during Super Bowl Sunday. Well, it turns out she’s been going to yoga classes regularly and she absolutely loves it!
“It’s great! I’ve lost some weight! I bought this darling little yoga outfit that’s perfect for my classes! Can you do the tree pose? ...
Well, not just my muscles, but my joints, my limbs, and my buttocks too!
I just finished my first class in Anusara Yoga, which I will now be calling “Downward Facing Dog” Yoga.
I have not done so many Downward Facing Dogs EVER before in a class. (more…)
Well, I finally started going to yoga class again and I sure felt the aftershocks of that new beginning!
No kidding, my body made it totally clear to me – especially my shoulders, which is where I’ve been experiencing so much discomfort in the past year from carrying and nursing my son. (more…)
I have to share with you my experience at Silverlake Yoga.
What a wonderful way to begin my physical practice again.
I chose a beginners’ class with Jonathan Emerson, who is one of the owners of Silverlake Studio, which has been around for 14 years. That is a testament in itself, when a community studio is able to sustain its location and practitioners for so many years.
