It has been a long while since my last blog post. I apologize. I was wrapped up in the goings on of my own world and got out of the habit. Then the longer it went on, the more of a deal it became. I was worried about what you might think and also about […]
Aeroponic gardening in our schools
I wanted to share my friend Becky’s story. She has recently become an urban gardener and was able to bring her passion to life at her son’s school. What better way to learn than to grow your own food! I remember planting a salsa garden with my son a few years ago when we moved from […]
How yoga can start your day off right
When I get into the rhythm of it, a morning yoga practice works nicely for me. It’s not that I am really a morning person but I tend to be up early with my kids, work and the normal morning routine. (My guys are approaching teenage-hood so it’s starting to shift somewhat on the weekends […]
Bring Joy to Your Yoga Practice
We all come to yoga for different reasons. It could be to heal an injury, to relieve stress or to get in shape. Maybe you love the way your body feels afterwards or you find a certain peace in the spiritual aspects. And as you go, your reasons may change. There may be times when […]
Get The Most Out of 10 Minutes of Yoga
A big thank you to Bethany for her guest post on Yoga Flavored Life this week! === When it comes to meeting any goal, the most important part is overcoming initial resistance and just taking that first step. This applies in beginning your yoga routine as well. Many assume that in order to reap […]
How to Love Change
Last week, a local celebrity died. He was well loved and he made a pretty big dent on this earth! I admired his kindness, passion and love of life. He always reminded me of my dad. Losses remind us of the impermanence of everything. We know that life is change. Nothing stays the same. But […]
5 Tips for Turning Inward
I recently returned to karate after a 10-year break (brought on by injury and time raising little kiddos.) A friend asked what made me go back. There were a few things. I am stronger and I have more freedom now that my boys are older. These were definite factors. But the deeper reason is that I feel more […]
Experimenting with Essential Oils and Yoga
I love essential oils. I have a few favourites that I always have around. I keep lavender to put on our pillows at night before bed. My boys will ask for it now if I forget! I like the energizing effects of peppermint. And I am addicted to the sensual scent of ylang ylang. One of our […]
Office yoga, a short sequence to get you moving midday!
Today one of my co-workers mentioned that her low back has been bothering her. It could stem from any number of things. It is difficult to tell with back issues. But one thing I can say with certainty is that most of us don’t move enough throughout the day. It’s pretty apparent that sitting all […]
Yoga with Kids
My boys (now 12 years old) used to do yoga with me when they were little. It always morphed into some kind of karate/yoga combo. But I was ok with that. It was fun and when it comes to kids and yoga, it’s best to go with the flow! My friend Karen wants to start a morning routine with her two […]
