| Sukhasana - Easy Pose, Dhyana - Meditation |
1. My sinuses filled with pressure, but the congestion is subsiding with each passing day.
2. I realized that I am completely reliant - obsessed - with the visual realm.
3. I am slowly learning to look inward.
4. My drishti is better than ever. 🙈
 |
| Laghu Vajrasana - Little Thunderbolt Pose Yes, mom’s light shines on us all. 🥰 |
A few hours of uninterrupted work time daily for yourself and then they, whoever, can have the rest!
 |
Baddha Trikonasana - Bound Triangle Utthita - extend - your yoga into all aspects of yourself and your life. |
 |
| Vajrasana - Thunderbolt Pose Remember You? When you are You - life is fun and funny as it is meant to be! |
Spending time with someone who is completely, unapologetically themselves invites us to be a little bit more genuine and original, too.
 |
| Utkatasana - Chair Pose, arms forward Pause at the end of your exhale. |
May your glass be half empty! It may not be very ‘American’, but it is OK not to fill every void. 🥛
 |
| Tri Pada Adho Mukha Svanasana - Three Legged Downward Facing Dog Pose & Drop to the forearm opposite the lifted bent leg - hurts so good. |
 |
| Sukhasana - Easy Pose, Neck Side Stretch Underlying everything - Pranayama is to yoga what attitude is to life. |
My children’s Waldorf school aligns with the very essence of how (and with whom) I believe they should be spending their days; and the details of our life are worked around the decision to have them there.
 |
| Eka Pada Galavasana Fan your toes in flying pigeon pose. |
Upon opening my uber organized ‘tooth care drawer’ to fetch my Sonicare’s charger, it hit me (again): “how can one person need/have so much stuff?” I have been in my fancy Colorado family bubble for some time now and register that I am in need of a reality check or shake up, but am not sure where or how that will happen…
 |
| Ardha Kapotasana - Half Pigeon Pose Fly free with any clothing and all accessories. |
How about not ‘yoga clothes’ for yoga. (Although I get it - cotton is heavy when wet and slow to dry!) 🤔
 |
| Manduka Malasana - Frog Garland Pose Squat Playful, with movement: childlike. |
 |
| Mandukasana - Frog Pose |
Become confident in life’s big challenges by taking little risks in yoga class.
 |
| Ardha Kapotasana - Half Pigeon Pose |
Pre or après (ski) body love. 🎿 🩵💛🩷
 |
| Skandasana - Skiiers Lunge |
 |
| Setu Bandhasana - Bridge Pose RX For your fatigue. |
It is unwise and misguided to permanently rely on one’s therapist, friend, parent, spouse… — yoga is always there for us.
 |
Vrksasana - Tree Pose This was my favorite pose for many years when I first discovered the practice of yoga in my University days. |
Upon completion of an insanely hectic week, it is natural to pine for the long-gone, youthful lingering days of nothingness, but, sigh, those days are decidedly behind us thanks to making our dreams come true.
 |
Virabhadrasana II - Warrior 2 Pose Surya Namaskar - Sun Salutation |
To each era its own rhythm and organization: I may rise at 5am regularly now, but I was not astir so early when I frequently awoke throughout the night with bébés - or in my twenties with other motives and goals!
 |
| Malasana - Garland Pose, Low Squat, reaching forward Self-actualize. |
Watch your step - it is (almost) all snake oil out there. I say be (very) skeptical of any THING or ANYONE - “authority, expert” - OUTSIDE of yourself promising YOUR self improvement; only the self can self-actualize.
 |
| Koundinyasana II - Flying Splits Pose 2, Preparation Pausing here often during Vinyasa. This is an accurate representation of what I generally wear to yoga: dark leggings, a lightweight, medium tone half-length undertank, and a looser (often grey) soft top tucked in. With a rose quartz colored cotton mat. |
Color TONALITY is important when dressing - take into account how much CONTRAST you do or do not have regarding your skin, eyes, and hair (and shade changes due to age, health status, tanned skin, sun-kissed tresses …).
Hint: Not everyone looks great in black. 🌞 🖤
 |
| Ashta Chandrasana - High Lunge, arms extended forward Let us train for the strength and control to improve our posture. |
By refining our physical comportment we will, in turn, upgrade numerous facets of our lives (or so I have been told 😉… still a sloucher over here 😬).
