Braised Collard Greens

Last week I made collard greens, ( as I have been almost every week since fall started), and I snapped a photo. I then posted said photo to face book commenting on how much I love those greens. I then received multiple comments and emails asking for the recipe.......Well, having no such recipe in hand I scribbled down the best estimate I could and sent it out. As I did that scribbling (typing) and sending, I decided I should do something a bit more productive and post about it! 

Ocean's Breath....

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.

The Magic of Candlelight Yoga

Did you know that some yoga classes are conducted in candlelight?  I find candlelight, or firelight to be quite magical.  I thought I would share a little about my first candlelight yoga experience. My hope is this will persuade you to give candlelit yoga, meditation, or movement a try.
