Work Hard. Rest Well.


WORK hard. One after another. A variation on #zombiepress, with crow pose, that is fun. And good work.


REST well. Sweet restorative pose I learned from a good friend and yoga teacher. Thank you Kathy! This felt like I had landed in heaven after a practice that included too many baby zombies.

Rainy Day Restoration

Signs of self care.

As much as I like to bust moves and can get caught up in the rah rah part of the practice, I try to remember that there is more yoga to offer yourself than that. There needs to be a balance. There is also breath work, meditation, introspection, restoration, service and solitude, to name a few. It may feel like more for your to-do list, but it can help with how you manage all of it. Full body and mind nurturing love. Give yourself some.

Going Back is Even Harder

One of yesterday’s lessons: pushing back to lying down is way harder than pulling up to forward fold. I was dreaming of, or really just fantasizing about, the path to handstand with feet over hands (a good friend told me this is called a “zombie press,” eeks).  But I discovered the return to home base is good, strong work for me.  Whatever the name, there is ALWAYS more, one direction or another. Choose a path and practice it. Today can be different than yesterday or tomorrow. This minute can be different than the one before or after. But land somewhere and practice there.  So much to be learned lying around on the floor (or a mat) with yourself and this moment. Be in it.

Practice Our Practice 

Can’t imagine going all the way upside down from here. That would be aaaaaahmazing.  And then there would be something else. Soooo, we practice our practice, where we are. That’s it. That’s the practice.
