Relaxing – Part 1

Occasionally I share techniques that I use for myself to deal with stressful or difficult periods with those that ask me for ideas. I decided it would be a good blog post/series.  Before proceeding, I’d like to emphasize that I am not offering medical advice. I am...

Catching Up

My Yoga Story

I’ll be the first to admit that for years, no one could get me to try Yoga. It was far too slow for me. How could anything that slow benefit anyone? So, what changed? Why do I have this new passion for Yoga? Quite simply, I kept hearing and reading about the numerous...
