I mean, some people swear they function best when they have to rifle through piles to find what they’re looking for… they even maintain that unless they are rifling through piles, they couldn’t possibly actually find what they’re looking for.
Really?! I’m always struck a tad incredulous with those claims… but hey, who am I to [...]

I think by now everyone is familiar with Oprah’s revelatory January ‘09 issue where she essentially came out of the closet about “falling off the wagon”. While I, along with millions of others, have followed her weight loss battles over the past two decades, I found this admission, accomampanied by the before and after picture [...]

Perhaps if I had a dog that required yoga-ing, I’d take my commitment to a regular practice more seriously. But, alas, my lovely beast of a dog would rather be walked than yoga-ed.
And as a result of this tender, gentle, affectionate, needy beast’s need for exercise, it is given priority in my day. Just about [...]

We have officially settled into our Mexican vacation. Day #2 has come to an end and I do believe everyone will be in a better sleep cycle beginning tonight. Which means, an early, uninterrupted, practice tomorrow morning. I love practicing yoga when we’re here… it’s just a matter of making time for it and early [...]

I can’t believe summer is already half over! And what have I done? What has become of training? What has become of yoga practice?
Ack!
Well…. let’s see. There’s been camping. There’s been managing kids and whatever school we are squeezing into our days. There’s been lots of company. And [...]
It’ll be Canada Day and this time just a fun, shorty-sprint Tri with a few cheater options. It’s the first in our area and in an effort to make it accessible and have it take off for years to come, it’s been made as appealing as possible to draw participants. In an effort to do [...]
Three kids. Now, I know there are those of you out there who manage a regular practice, family, preparing well-balanced meals all while representing NATO and vacuming your living room. I am not one of these.
I blog. I homeschool. I take pictures. I write some. I cook meals. Oh… and [...]
It’s been a while. The classes, as well as my own practice, were derailed late this winter due to a change of ownership at our lovely venue. In the case of my practice… well, that’s just a matter of prioritization. And I didn’t do it well.
I have a triathlon looming mid-June and [...]
