Sick Dog = Less Exercise
Shiloh’s been sick lately. She has an auto-immune problem that hasn’t shown its ugly head in several years. When it first happened, after a series of scary tests that lead to heart surgery (that turned out not to be necessary) and draining 12 lbs of fluid from her chest cavity, she recovered well and was […]

For the Love of the Backbend
Tonight’s flow yoga was excellent. Lots of flow. Lots of stretching. Lots of strength poses. But, by far, my favorites were the backbends…particularly camel. I was able, holding my hands on my hips, to bend backwards to the point that I basically just put my hands on my heels. So, most of the rotation to […]

20 Minute Walk with Shiloh
Saw the sun was out & I had a few minutes, so we got in a nice fall afternoon walk. I really like walking Shiloh around lunchtime, when it isn’t terribly hot out, for a few reasons. One, I get the joy of a walk with Shiloh. Two, I get out during daylight hours. Three, […]

Restorative yoga
Not much to report. Lots of restoration. Much needed. My shoulders managed to let go & melt out some of the extra tension they’ve been carrying lately.
Skipping the 2nd cup of coffee today was good. I need to cut back. I’ve been relying on coffee a little too much lately with all the extra work. […]

Shake, Fumble & Grow!
We have a new teacher at the yoga studio. She’s teaching several of the level II-III classes, and her style is quite different from any of the many other teachers I’ve studied under. She doesn’t use a lot of vinyasa to warm us up. Yet, we get warm! And some of her vinyasa is very […]

It had been a week since I’d been to yoga, and its not like me or good for me to be off that long. Had a lot of tension going in, but the class was great & I feel back on track. Hope to make class tonight as well!

Tiny Bits of Exercise
It continues to be a busy week here at Garden Mentors, but I did manage to get out and take Shiloh for a walk yesterday. Of course by the time I was able to take her, our brief sunshine had passed and we were doused with huge raindrops, so it turned into a short walk […]

Kicking the Wine…
…the wine hose that is…
Today was our first crush of the season at Domanico Cellars. Each year, the first crush is always a challenge as we work out using new equipment, new teams and new techniques. Today I won’t have time to make it to yoga after working all day & going to evening appointments, […]
