Tight & Inflexible - Whose Body is this Anyway?
What the heck is going on? I’m a regular yogi (or yogini or whatever you want to call it), so I should be flexible, right? This morning was a wake up call bringing to light the reality that my body is getting weaker and less flexible. I thought about it, and there are a few reasons [...]

Deeply in the way of the Warrior
Tonight’s restorative yoga class was extra slow, which was nice. We did work on Warrior I & Warrior II. Because the class goes slow to teach new students about the poses, this allows me to really work the pose correctly and deeply. When I’m in a flow class, I’m whipping through them, so my form [...]

Mood Rollercoaster Day
I really should be working, but…
Today was Mom’s last day visiting. I’ve got to admit, it can be hard to have family stay in my house for a couple of weeks. Our house is decent sized, but not huge. Its good for two people, but add a guest & things get rough. We have only [...]

Spa Day & Flow Yoga — what a combo!
One of Mom’s requests this visit was to go to Olympus Spa. Its a women-only Korean dayspa near Seattle. At $30/head, it is relatively inexpensive to use the facilities that include a variety of hot & cold tubs, wet & dry saunas, and heated therapeutic rooms featuring salt, charcoal, cedar, sand, jade and more. They [...]

Yoga Bliss!
Went to Saturday morning flow class, which is one of my favorites & one of the hardest. I finally felt healed in the hip & groin to work into my warriors, standing splits, 1/2 moon and squats. I did some cool binds, camel with feet flat for the first time ever (yay!), and headstand. Am [...]
