Its all yoga, all the time for me! Throughout my day - doing bodywork, teaching yoga, running a business, working in the garden, relaxing with friends and puppies in this beautiful state of New Mexico - my life is infused with yoga. I love the deeper awareness of my body, mind, soul that it brings me; love the deeper connection it enables me to experience with the world around it; and REALLY love that I am able to share this beauty with others.

I know its not always possible to connect with other yogis, that we all need extra inspiration in our own practices, and sometimes even a little kick in the butt to get into that yoga zone. I hope this blog will help you with that (and me, too!) as I share pieces of my classes, practices and inspiration with you.

Your Amazing Brain

I remember a few years back, when Jill Bolte Taylor's book about her stroke came out and I heard many interviews with her about the experience.  It was fascinating but at the time didn't seem immediately relevant to me.  Then, just a couple weeks ago, I saw this TED talk she did on the subject and she blew my mind with the implications of how different the sides of our mind see the world and influence our interactions with it. I immediately saw correlations to my meditation practice and started looking at yoga a little differently.  Here's the link to that talk, I won't tell you much about it, its great to watch it unfold.  I hope it inspires your practice as much as it inspired mine.
