Moksha Yoga: Falling for a Brand

I just completed a 30 day challenge at the Moksha Yoga Hamilton studio.  I don’t know if I have ever fallen so hard for a brand before.  This brand has stolen my heart. It all started when I found myself suddenly at loose ends with my exercise program, as I had stopped one thing and… Continue reading Moksha Yoga: Falling for a Brand

Breaking Through my Barrier: I Went Skiing!

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 16 – Shavasana, Shavasana, Shavasana…

I got to yoga this morning and I feel torn.  I want the peace and rest of spending some time in Shavasana and I also want a work-out.  I really like the teacher that is here and so I start the first downward dog and my wrist feel sore.  That seems to answer my question.… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 16 – Shavasana, Shavasana, Shavasana…

21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 15

My  body is changing.  I am noticing that my skin is clearing.  I have had a little blemish under my eye for a while.  It came to the surface and went away.  I have always been a little stinky–especially if I drink coffee.  My body odor has gone away.  I didn’t wear deodorant yesterday and… Continue reading 21 Day Yoga Challenge: Day 15
