Tonight's 20 minute practice was dedicated to the woman who I had to end a 13 year relationship with recently. I had so much trouble getting to a place in my practice where I could be mindfully aware of the present moment; I've been so much in my head about this situation. Her malicious email and blog entry after blog entry have smeared me in ways I would have never thought her capable of. All this energy rolled around with me on the mat tonight. But, I was able to find solace in child's pose. I… Continue

Hello WoYoPracMo-ers! Long time no see. I know I'm a day late at starting the July Yoga kickoff party but, that's ok. I'll make up for it at the end. So many things have been happening in my life lately that all point to me needing to make space and time for a regular Yoga practice again. I'm going through a time of rough transitions: had to end a 12 year relationship with a woman I had always considered my best friend and who was going to be my Maid of Honor. And, I'm going through a rough sp… Continue

Life: I'm sick. Lover is sick. Superboy isn't sick, at least not anymore. Lucky kid. Let me tell ya, it really sucks to have to take care of a perfectly healthy and wildly energetic child when you and your lover are both down with a mild stomach flu. Yuck! Bleh.... Oh, I forgot to mention that on top of the sickness, I have been busy taking photos for photo class (which meant a hike by the lake with Superboy and Pepper --our wiener-dog/jack Russell puppy), and now I'm off to spend hours i… Continue

Over the last month and a half, I've fallen out of my Yoga habit. However, being enrolled in a beginning Ceramics class has pushed me back onto the mat. After hours of working with the clay, my neck and back burn and ache. I'm convinced Yoga is the only way I can continue this class without throwing my back out. So, I'm putting my best foot forward; I'm reclaiming my practice. It's not going to be easy. My schedule this quarter is spilling over. My to-do list is as tall as mighty Redwood. Most… Continue

Tonight I'm Grateful for: ****My Lover (who is the most patient and understanding human being I know) ****My Body (I may be overweight, but thats no excuse to stop loving myself) ****Time in the bath (Lavender scented Bubble Bath, baby!) ****My Food Journal ( I may not be eating as healthy as I'd like, but ever since I started this journal I've been eating less of what's not healthy.) ****Uplifting Magazines (What great material to use on the Vision Board I'm creating!) ****Playing Hooky from s… Continue

Just checkin in to say hi. We haven't heard from you in awhile. I hope the relationship situation is not getting you down.
Namaste.
Just wondering if you're in for July? We didn't get a chance to know each other last time and since I won your prize, I'd love the opportunity now.
Hope to see you blogging,
SeaStar
You won my prizes! I offered to send some incense and chocolates. Are those prizes good for you? (I wouldn't want to send chocolate to someone who is diabetic or incense to someone who hates it - or something like that!) Let me know. :)
Namaste!
