Should I?

What do these 2 words mean to you? How do they feel in your body? In your mind?

As my mom says, "don't should on me." ☺️

Let's celebrate all the women in your life.

The month of March is National Womens history month. There is so much focus on the women who make news, and who's stories are told, but what about the women close to us who's stories we know or maybe don't really know?

When I was teaching yoga last week, I was lying on my stomach and had this feeling of just needing to kick my feet on the floor. I explained the movement as if “you are having an adult temper tantrum.” If you were in class I hope you enjoyed and laughed, or said, “heck yes!”

"Every day, you breathe in just over 2,000 gallons of air—enough to almost fill up a normal-sized swimming pool. It's the amount needed to oxygenate approximately 2,000 gallons of blood pumped through your heart daily" -American Lung Association

The leader of my entrepreneur's coaching group asked us to bring a new idea to those who are our best cheerleaders.

When I left the Pilates Reformer Studio I worked at for 4 years I had no idea what I was going to do with all my years of training and with my students! I learned then who my cheerleaders were. My kids, who pushed me to buy equipment and start my own studio.

Lately, I've run into so many people letting me know they don't have time. I started to ponder just what does that mean? What are you spending your time on? Is it something that you enjoy doing or are you spending time on something you don't enjoy doing? So I went to look up the definition of time…

Last week, I let you know what I was grateful for this past year; now, it's your turn. Maybe you journal, write in your calendar, or just think about it in your head, or maybe you can send me an email with your thoughts.

SO.... In 2020....

With gratitude and grace, we are closing in on the end of 2020! With so much grief & loss, I continue to pray for those who have lost much, and I'm grateful to look back on 2020 with the gifts that I found in my life.

Pranayama = Prana means LIFE FORCE and Yama is the ability to control that life force.

Breathing is the first sign of life and the first sign of death.

Somewhere in between we change our breathing patterns. Why? Life!
