Thoughts, inspiration, balance… and randomness
And rounding out my week of songs? Ms. Alanis. You learn. Life is going to give us lessons that frankly, we don't want. Trust me, I've been living a lifetime of them. I think the important thing to realize is that you are learning. It's making you a better, wiser person. But, how about changing … Continue reading You Learn
Can only mean one thing. Okay, actually, could mean 3 things. 1. #1 Billboard song from Paula Abdul in September, 1989. 2. Reid from Bachelor Pad. 3. A nice, gentle backbend. Well, I'm gonna cover all three. 1. Paula Abdul's video for Cold-Hearted Snake solidified the fact that we had a bonafide dancer (and not … Continue reading Cold-Hearted Snake
Why isn't yoga in the Olympics? It's an insane workout... more so than say, shooting. And the perfection of poses could be measured similarly to that of gymnastics or rhythmic gymnastics... So what gives? I really wanted to post something about the Olympics this week, well, because it's a big dot deal and everyone is … Continue reading Yogalympics
I really really wanted to write about Bachelor Pad today. But seriously, it was so gawd-awful, I couldn't bring myself to do it. I mean awful. I don't know that I can watch the rest of the season anymore it's so bad. I wanted to salvage something from it... anything... as, believe it or not, … Continue reading Non-Attachment
Every cell in this body wanted to avoid writing about The Bachelor Pad tonight. Seriously. I have some serious topics to write about this week and then I received a text regarding The Bachelor Pad.

(I say unofficially because I still have some makeup hours from my trips away … Continue reading Two Hundy
I've been seeing a lot of chatter, FB posts whatnot on an opinion article in the New York Times about being one of those "busy" people. If you missed the article, you can read it here: The Busy Trap, By TIM KREIDER. There are some particular excerpts I found annoyingly ignorant about being busy: It … Continue reading Busy and I Know It
For days and weeks I would walk into the lovely Green Yogi yoga studio in North Manhattan Beach, CA. And for days and weeks I would admire the gorgeous handmade malas wondering if I should buy one. But each week, mala after mala would be sold to someone... and although so beautiful, none of the … Continue reading Mala Mala Beads, Y’all
Yikes, this might have been the heaviest and most dramatic episode of the The Bachelorette EVER. Time for my always delightful recap/commentary. We open with Emily contemplatively walking along the shore's edge in Curacao, wondering who to pick.. reflecting upon her hot reality men... she leans down to write "Emily + ?" into the sand … Continue reading Curaçao, Plow!
Since May 2012 I have been in a whirlwind- and never stopped. I went on trips to Thailand, Napa, and Jacksonville. I fundraised and attended an event for my non-profit. I put together a Fourth of July gathering. I had a cute Australian distracting me (in a good way) for three weeks. I continued teacher … Continue reading Club Meditate
