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… Continue reading Breaking Through my Barrier: I Went Skiing!

21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 21 – I Finished My Challenge!

How did it end? I thought I would go to class today and I would stay in Shavasana but the instructor was so good, I ended up doing most of the class. Strangely, today, at the studio, I didn’t know any of the staff.  All along the way, they have cheered me on and told… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 21 – I Finished My Challenge!
