Welcome! Here is where you can find when and where I am teaching and cooking, or maybe sometimes, what is on my mind. Hope you have a nice stay!
All in lessons
We spent this last week at my childhood home for spring break. It was a lovely week of rest and family. Something I always love about being home is getting to spend time with my (almost) 92 year old Grandpa. He is a fountain of wisdom and experience. In the past few years he has changed his eating habits and started exercising with the goal of losing weight and remaining physically capable.
I have chatted with so many people about this subject of finding motivation to move. It is more then challenging when you are sick, or have injury, or depression, or kids, or, Or, OR..... The list goes on and on. Why is it that even though we know yoga, or exercise, will help us feel better, we just can’t seem to get started?
Yoga uses breath work quite a lot. Pranayama, (yogic breath work), has many different styles of breath to treat different ailments, provide emotional and mental support, and relief. I could go on and on about the benefits, but, today I want to focus on a style of pranayama that works for me.
Change. We all know it is a part of life, and, most of us want to get more comfortable with the process. Maybe we can even find a fun new way to look at that constant companion... change. This month we would like to talk about how yoga can help us find some comfort in that sometimes uncomfortable process.
