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 yoga
How strange it is to watch the storm in our mind. Some days we may have light cloudiness, mostly sun, some days it’s like watching that inevitable dark cloud grow closer by the minute. The storm clouds of our mind can be much more challenging to deal with then the storm clouds in the sky.
It's a new year!! It's an easy time to set new goals, evaluate where we are at, what we want in our future, and maybe, decide what we want to change. New year's resolutions here we come. It seems that a lot of people make the resolution to be "healthier" in the new year. This resolution often include some kind of diet, and some sort of exercise.
We are in the process of “fixing" our kitchen. This morning, I woke up feeling like this kitchen has become a metaphor for life. The deeper we dig, the more we find.
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.
