i only had one class to teach today, which allowed me most of the day at home.  started working early in the day on several different projects, new business cards, facebook ad, set up a couple of client appointments, and even had a chance to take a short bike ride.  a lot of my time was spent working on my website/blog, trying to get an upcoming yoga session posted. you know, i started out this

wow, i cannot believe it's been over a month since my last post.  where does the time go?  i've wanted to write and often think of wonderfully clever things to say, especially while taking a shower, then get to the computer, open it and become completely intimidated by the dreaded blank page. here's another shocking revelation: in just 3 short days we will be starting a new year! i'm really

it's been a bit since my last post.  i'm afraid i let my schedule get a little out of control and will be working to reign it back in.  yesterday morning was lovely.  we had a cold front blow in that brought some rain in the form of thunderstorms (love the sound of thunder and rain).  luckily for me i don't teach until later in the day on tuesdays so i was able to enjoy a leisurely morning

i've really been enjoying our cooler weather lately.  this morning i took my bike for a spin before classes.  as you see from the pic, it's not a very fancy bike, but i love it.  i have big plans to "fancy-it up" soon with a cute little basket on the front and a bell; it's got to have a bell!    yes, i'm aware it is a boys bike; it became a hand-me-down to me once the boy went off to college.

very excited to be offering a new session for gentle flow yoga.  classes start this week, thursday (10/27) at 10 am and are an hour long.  what is gentle flow yoga?  so glad you asked! this style of yoga is great for everyone, especially for those new to yoga or perhaps have been inactive for a while, or those who may be experiencing physical limitations.  classes are designed to to create an

i was doing a little dreaming this morning while writing in my journal and sitting in my sanctuary.   dreaming about the possibility of having a little cottage by the beach or maybe out in the country with a river nearby.  maybe even moving to a completely different state.  who knows? never thought i'd be the traveling kind.  i've always pretty much liked my feet firmly planted in the same

my thursday mornings start bright and early at 9 am with my 90+ years young gang. (yes i realize that 9 am is not that early for most people, but what can i say!) usually when i get there the ladies are quite often waiting in their chairs for me.  this morning though as i got to the top of the stairs i heard, "cindy we have a problem".  i must admit that greeting was a little scary, after all

i started working on creating a little hide-away on my patio. a little outdoor sanctuary where i can spend time in the morning journaling, sipping coffee,and listening to the birds chatting.  the esperanza plant is creating some wonderful color. and my friend and trusted writing companion willie is always close by.

sometimes shoes just don't fit.  they may be really, really cute or maybe you paid a lot of money for them or better yet, you got a really good deal, but every time you wear them your feet hurt.  oh yes, they're your size and so very adorable, but no matter how many times you've tried wearing them thinking that eventually you'll "break them in", your feet still hurt. it's happened to me. this

a year and a half ago i registered for yoga therapy training through phoenix rising yoga therapy.  it's a training i had been wanting to attend for a really long time.  however, as life so often goes, a week before the training and the craziness that was my schedule, i had to cancel.  i was pretty bummed when i realized that it was too late to receive a refund and then quite happy when i found

bit of a crazy week last week.  the downside is, i'm really tired right now.  the upside is, there were a couple of really good lessons learned. 1.  you cannot make everyone like you, not even family.  there are many things in life that one cannot control, and whether or not someone likes you is one of them.  let it go. be true to who you are. they have their story and there's a big possibility

for the last 6 months or so, maybe longer, i've been excited about the fact that when the boy graduated i would no longer have to drive back and forth to school.  even more exciting than that, i wouldn't have to wake up before 7am!  it's been a couple of weeks since graduation and i haven't had to get before 7 am - it's been very nice.  i like it, alot. but, before this wonderful new chapter

i've been looking forward to this day all week.  not necessarily because it's mother's day, albeit that's a good reason, i was looking forward to sleeping in as long as i wanted.  this was the one day this week i didn't have to set the alarm or be in a rush to get anywhere. i was so excited! unfortunately someone, perhaps me, forgot to tell the dogs.  didn't they know it was mother's day?

good wednesday morning!  now even though i'm saying this now, more than likely it will late afternoon or probably tonight before this gets posted, but hey, i'm trying!! life is still running at a whirlwind pace, at least for me.  with son's graduation looming around the corner and college prep to be done, it's just a lot.  really looking forward to a quieter time soon. maybe it's because of

i may have mentioned this before, but sunday mornings are currently my favorite time out of the week.  it's usually so very quiet, i don't have to teach or go anywhere, and i can hang out in my pj's most of the morning. now once the boy goes off to college and i don't have to take to sunday rehearsals any more, i could conceivably stay in those pj's all day...have fun would that be?!!! i've been

what a whirlwind of a week was had (last week).  the week before we had spring break and it was oh so nice, quiet and calm.  no driving to and from school and rehearsals.  a glimpse of things to come. by comparison, this past week felt like it was in hyper-drive.  (is that a word?  i don't know, but it is now!) last week my youngest turned 18, there was an unexpected (expensive) visit to the

i LOVE my quiet mornings.  no noise except for the birds chatting outside the open window.  the dogs have had their breakfast and are chillin' around  my feet for their morning nap, the smell of brewing coffee fills the room, and i'm starting to prepare for the day. no rush, no traffic. perhaps one day soon, my yoga studio will be so close that i can just step out my door and walk down the

did you know that you don't have to be flexible, younger, or really fit to practice yoga? it's true!  the practice of yoga lets us come as we are, no matter our age, size or fitness level.  we learn to listen to our bodies, do what we can, and not worry about the rest of it. yoga truly is for everyBody.  give it a try, what have you got to lose?  commit to 5 sessions and see what a difference

i've been a little scattered this week.  not sure why.  could be that halloween is right around the corner or more than likely its because i had to sub out my monday yoga classes and missed beginning my week with yoga.  i wish i could say i did my own practice at home that day, but i didn't.  what i can tell you is that i have really noticed a difference in my week and i do attribute it to the

Taught my second class at the resort this morning.  It was a little cooler than yesterday, not much, but a little, and quite a few more people showed up to take class, which was exciting. The class consisted of all women, a couple of them brought their younger daughters and one lady even practiced with her mother-in-law.  It was very family-oriented and the energy was really nice.  They came to

Two lovely ladies joined me in a restorative flow practice.  I highly

in anticipation of my trip to pittsburgh and nyc soon, my thoughts often drift to what am i going to pack?  now i'm not necessarily talking about clothes, though part of the trip is the attendance of my niece's wedding and i should certainly wear something other than my typical yoga clothes, but i digress!  no, my thoughts wander off to what books i'm going to bring!! well, i think i've decided.

The day started with finding a little extra time before class. Instead of glaring at the computer, I went for my walk (as you see I'm trying to walk, move, do something at least 30 minutes a day). It was nice even with the high humidity. It felt good to sweat. During my walk I was listening to one of my fav podcasters Kimberly Wilson, Hip Tranquil Chick. It was cosmic in that the episode I

The above quote from Judith Lasater's book, A Year of Living Your Yoga was the one I used for class yesterday and is so true at least for me. However, if you've not practiced yoga before or have just started you may not see the relevance of this quote.Yoga is comprised of many parts. It's not just the asanas (postures) that we often think of when we hear the word yoga. The postures are

a student, who is relatively new to yoga, came up to me after class yesterday to say how much she enjoyed the class, which is always so wonderful to hear. what was even better was that she went on to say that since she's started class her back pain is gone! how cool is that? of course i love it when students give me feedback, especially good feedback, but when they tell me things such as my

Medical research estimates that as much as 90% of illness and disease is stress related, 90%! That's crazy!!90% is an awfully high percentage, but one I tend to believe. I know personally that whenever I become stressed and allow myself to stay stressed, that's usually when I come down with a cold or worse.So what can you do?

Both yoga and massage have so many benefits, from alleviating back pain, headaches, shoulder & neck discomfort to increasing your energy level and lowering your blood pressure. If you practice yoga and/or have had the chance to enjoy a relaxing massage session then you know how very wonderful you feel after a session. It just makes sense that you'd want to share this with your loved ones.For the

before heading off to dreamland tonight, i took a few moments to indulge in a little restorative yoga.legs up the wall pose - i used the side of my bed for this one and it worked out beautifully. once positioned on my back i placed my Reiki eye pillow over my eyes, (which i'll tell you about in the future), and hung out for at least 5 minutes, though it may have been a little longer. it did

I found these facts interesting and thought you might too! 1. Massage may be one of the oldest forms of medical care - Egyptian tomb paintings show people being massaged.2. A one-hour massage equates to 7-8 hours of sleep for the body.3. Massage is not a luxury, it is necessary to sustain well-being: physically, mentally, and spiritually.4.

If you've ever suffered or are suffering from plantar fasciitis you know how uncomfortable it can be. For me, my feet would hurt the worst when I would get out of bed in the mornings. Often it would feel as though when I step down, they were going to break in half.Plantar fasciitis is the inflammation of the band of tissues that attach from the heel to the toes.

How have the first few days of 2010 been for you? For a change, mine have been nice and quiet, and I love it! This is the first weekend that I haven't really had to do anything other than enjoy my family, hang out, and just be. Definitely want more of these type of days in 2010.I was so busy the last few weeks of 2009 it was crazy, too crazy. I had no time to do much of anything other than go

i'm always amazed at how easy it is to get caught up in the busyness of life!it's only been about 10 days since we arrived home from our vacation, but it feels so much longer than that. did we have a vacation? it may have happened to you as well. you have a great time while you're gone and then once you get back you hit the ground running with the daily routine of life, back to school, work,

Recently read this quote and was reminded how much I love it. Thought it was definitely worth sharing:"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.

while discussing with my niece the possibility of attending a yoga class here in nyc, she mentioned having attended a studio by the name of, Yoga to the People. She mentioned that it was a flow-style of class (vinyasa) and the couple of classes that she had taken were really packed. she also mentioned that she thought the classes were free, which of course really peaked my interest.during the
