Restorative Yoga & Into the Yogic Future

Had big plans to hit the restorative and then the flow class right after…until I realized it was Halloween & staying for the later class would mean missing all the adorable neighborhood pirates, ghosts, pumpkins, Barbies, witches….so in the end I just went to one class. We did loads of hamstring work & lots of […]

Halloween = Laughing at Myself

If you read this blog regularly, you know that I’m committed to a regular yoga practice. When I first started, I wore loose, ugly sweatpants & sweat shirts that hide everything. As I graduated into more difficult classes and I needed to move from pose to pose more rapidly in flows, I traded in the […]

Can a Robin become a Flying Crow?

Monday yoga was great. We did several flows & a lot of hamstring work, which I always need. As well we did a lot of hip openers including Eka Pada Galavasana. I was able to follow all the steps toward the arm balance, but I wasn’t able to fully arm balance. On one side I […]

A Couple of Other Items

Sunday was a busy day. I did several outdoor exercise/work items. Since we still don’t have the ability to customize “other” categories (hmmm…when’s that coming folks?), I’ll write’m all up here.
 Other #1, In the Garden…I got out in my own garden and did several hours of fall clean up ranging from cutting back Shiloh’s tiny […]

Walk with Shiloh

Simple neighborhood walk on Sunday in the sun. Shiloh’s plugging along. No updates on the biopsies yet. The sad thing is prednisone may help her illness but it makes her slightly manic. She’s such a GOOD dog, which makes it extra hard to be so stern with her when I know the drugs WE give […]

Kick, Strrrretch & Kick!

Saturday morning I made sure I went to yoga. Not only do I need to get back to going regularly on Saturday mornings, but I had to make sure I was ready for my halloween costume to avoid injury.
Okay, you laugh, but…Halloween is my favorite holiday. Everyone is somebody else. Even the shy get to […]

Getting in touch with the soil

Yesterday I decided to take advantage of the sunny, if cold, day. I was sick of looking out my diningroom picture window at the perennials that were “finished” for the season and the weeds that had been hiding under my deciduous trees, which had become quite visible with the autumn leaf drop. In three hours […]
