Posted by in Fitness

I have been doing yoga now for 28 days straight.  I started with a 21 day challenge and then signed up for a 30 day challenge that was starting near the end of my 21 days.   I just completed day 28 and thought I would give you an update about what is happening with me now. First and foremost, I have lost 7 pounds.  While the first...

It had only been 4 years since I last skied, but it seemed like a lifetime ago.  I last went skiing with my family in New Mexico in 2009.  It was beautiful snow and weather and we had a fun day.  Since then I have had so many issues walking that I was sure I would never ski again.  I had a couple of bad falls and then I had...

My parents arrived yesterday and it’s Halloween.  Feels good to set aside some time for myself on such a busy day, even when we have house-guests.  I get up early and leave the house and arrive at a 6:30 am Moksha class.  As we go through the class, I am deeply engaged by most of the poses.  The balancing poses continue to be...
