Scheduling Around Bipolar Disorder: How To Stay Focused

Bipolar disorder affects nearly six million Americans, yet many people don’t understand exactly what it is or how it can take a toll on the body and mind. The disorder works differently depending on the person, of course; for some, manic, highly active times are accompanied by feelings of elation and accomplishment but can lead […]

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 […]

Honoring the Self-Care Aspect of Your Practice

Honoring the Self-Care Aspect of Your Practice

Most of us know we need to take care of ourselves if we have any hope of nurturing the other human and other sentient beings in our worlds. When we ignore care for ourselves, we have very little energy left over with which to mindfully engage with others. Although we know this intellectually, we may […]

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 […]

The Joy of Waking Up to Yoga

The Joy of Waking Up to Yoga

In March I turned 45. It’s not really known as a milestone year – like turning 16 or 40 is. But I felt like creating a shift in my life. For me, transformation starts in the body. When I wanted to gain confidence and become strong, I started karate. When I couldn’t do that for […]

Tips for building strength through yoga

I am participating in a fun 30-day wellness challenge put on by my friend Mike at the Wellness Bucket. The second day, the challenge was to state your current fitness goal. My focus is on building strength. Yoga has helped me in all kinds of ways. It has made more flexible, resilient, centered and more content. I’ve […]

We All Need a Little Space

We All Need a Little Space

Creating a Sacred Space for Spiritual Practice What is a “sacred space?” Many people who meditate, do yoga, and embrace the holistic lifestyle have what they call “sacred spaces.” These are “sacred” not necessarily in a religious way, but in the word’s original sense: “set apart for special use.” Whether we’re part of a religous […]

The Brilliance of Interfaith Dialogue

The Brilliance of Interfaith Dialogue

“What unites us is much greater than what separates us … It is necessary … to rid ourselves of stereotypes, of old habits and above all, it is necessary to recognize the unity that already exists.” So wrote Pope John Paul II of Christian/Buddhist dialogue in his book, Crossing the Threshold of Hope. This call […]

The Joy of Online Tutoring

The Joy of Online Tutoring

“What’s this topic doing on a yoga blog?” you may well ask yourself. Online tutoring is “the other thing” I do on top of writing and editing. It’s an interesting sideline; the explosion of digital resources for both teachers and students has enabled a revolution in the way people learn. I know there are yoga […]

Of Holidays, Reconnecting, and Improvised Traditions

Looking Deeply into Holiday Celebrations My wife is from Puerto Rico, “La isla más bonita,” where they know a thing or two about celebrating the holidays. Christmas (La Navidad) is a big deal there, but the real action is on El Dia de los Reyes (Three King’s Day– the popular term for the Feast of the […]
