| Standing Fire Hydrant Poses - it will feel like all of a sudden, (but it is, in fact, 1.5 years of regularity with your habit!) that you feel one (little) level stronger. |
Standing fire hydrant pose? Poses with no names welcome.
Acknowledge and celebrate consistency and progress with more consistency and more progress.

Two thoughts to carry you through the weekend : ☝️ Let your yoga be silky (and not polyestery 😜). ✌️If you like to shop - as I do - become better at getting rid of things. 🎀💕🎈

How we do one thing is how we do everything. One look in my cabinet and I had to laugh - a collection of drawings on both my shelf stable household items and my perishables…

“Being in ‘nature’ is good for us,” “get out into ‘nature’,” “commune with ‘nature’ daily,” “eat more naturally, wear natural fibers, naturalify your home…” — hold the phone — we ARE nature!!! ☎️
As I am perpetually attracted to and distracted by bright, shiny objects and innumerable looks, modas and trends, I have to condition myself not to try every cut, color and material …
We should (in times of limitless options) make our own little unspoken edicts (whilst free to disobey and evolve said mandates constantly). Such as :
FOR FASHION (currently) -
1. No writing. Strong personal pet-peeve, should be its own post.
2. No logos. Especially not on heart or head!!
3. No black. Unless for equipment, like sports.
4. No polyester. Though also OK for athletic / specialty purposes.
5. No bands around the diaphragm. Camisoles in lieu of bras.
6. Revolving door of anything goes undies.
7. No high-heels. Low heels on occasion. Thick soles for dusty country living.
8. Soft style hair ties.
9. Mascara is for special days.
10. Shop while on vacation. Too taxing during regular family-life days.
11. The word ‘fashion’ gets a bad rap - and I keep hearing use ‘style’, but I like the practicality of fashion being a ‘system, manner, method, approach’, and the DIY aspect that to fashion is to ‘make, manufacture, construct, build’.
Your mat = your own little world. Today I left my rose quartz colored, woven cotton yoga mat in the yoga studio’s ladies room. Sob! I’ll pick it up next time, of course. I use a yoga rug and cannot believe this style has not caught on (I’ve seen only one other) as I give it zero complaints and many acclaims. 💕
Handpick preferences and priorities. Your own, not others’.
If you’re not fond of that THING (the fit of your sweats, the tightness of your sports bra, the cut or color of your thong, the stroke of your hairbrush, the ingredients in your lip gloss, the squeeze of the scrunchie on your wrist…) today, it will inconvenience you even more tomorrow, but you will forget your aversion over time - so OUT NOW with that thingie! And all of its unsatisfactory thingie friends, too.
Be true to yourself in this present-day era: balance inner knowing with open curiosity. There is always room for improvement.
Using passion, pleasure and emotion to find our rhapsody. ❤️🔥
