Monday, Oct 31, 2022 - This morning I was thinking about my Dad and his willingness to do different things than the norm, and live a life looking at the possible. We'll think about that today.

Friday, Oct. 28, 2022 - To finish up this week of the thinking about the chakras, we will focus on the heart chakra, considering the mantra, "I love and deserve to be loved" - darn right you do. :-)

Thursday, Oct. 28, 2022 - Today we consider the transformational qualities of the 3rd chakra, and by making heat in the body you can accelerate this transformation.

Wednesday, Oct. 26, 2022 - This week we are thinking about the chakras, and yesterday I learned of a whole different way to think of the chakras. Historically, I've thought of the chakras in terms of working from the bottom up...starting with being grounded and working up to deeper learning and ...

Tuesday, Oct. 25, 2022 - Today we work with the 2nd chakra, which is all about being open to going with the flow of life. This chakra relates to the hips, so we'll do a lot of hip stuff today...enjoy!

Monday, Oct. 24, 2022 - Today in our practice we will focus on the first chakra, which is all about feeling grounded and steady in the body, as well is considering how we are doing in lives with being grounded...mainly with money, housing, food, and transportation.

Friday, Oct. 21, 2022 - Something I really love about yoga philosophy is the idea that all the good is inside of you, you just need to look for it. Today we consider one of the sutras from the Radiance Sutras that says, "The essence of all teachings is right here, open your eyes."

Thursday, Oct. 20, 2022 - At UVM this week I asked students to write positive affirmations on the sidewalks. It's really great and super positive to see. It's amazing how something so simple, like a message that says "You Got This," can make your whole day. In class today we focus on positive t...

Tuesday, Oct. 18, 2022 - The practice of karma yoga is to take action that is "good" action, without regard for the fruits of the action. Today we think about that and work on it as a yoga practice.

Wednesday, Oct 19, 2022 - Something I've come to recognize, through yoga, is my body is telling me things...I'm just not sure what they are. Part of the yoga practice is listening, and then trying to figure it out. Enjoy!

Monday, Oct. 17, 2022 - Over the last 3 days I've been teaching the UVM Teaching Training. After doing something like that, it's great to get back to being grounded, and the breath really helps with that. We'll enjoy the breath today. :-)

Wednesday, Oct. 12, 2022 - Today we find the space between the inhale and the exhale, and the exhale and the inhale.

Tuesday, Oct. 11, 2022 - One of my favorite teachings from sacred texts is this one, "Teachings on Bhakti (love) should be reflected on, practices that awaken it should be undertaken." We will do practices that awaken it today. :-)

Friday, Oct. 7, 2022 - In yoga philosophy, the word "sattva" have many meaning, but two of them are "goodness" and "existence." So, think about that for a hot second. A word that means both goodness and existence. Which, of course, would mean, if it exists it is good, and if it is good, it exi...
