I am so excited about this new year and all the yoga I am bringing to my community! I am so happy I am now using the Tapestry studio in Viroqua for 2 of my classes and other special events. It is a beautiful studio and has such a good vibe. I will miss the LaFarge Wednesday P.M. class-but hope that those folks may consider coming into Viroqua that night :) Another change is that my Gays Mills class moved to the old community building on Main St.-although the new community building had a great view, I think this new space will be better for us. It has nice wood floors and is a smaller space I can keep cozier temperature wise.
I look forward to the training I'm about to take next weekend-it's a surprise...so I will tell you about it next month!
I continue to work privately with people and to teach at Organic Valley and with the students at Youth Initiative high school.
Lauren Hunt and I will continue our 4th Friday Kirtan gathering-hope to see you there sometime!

My yin yoga class

11/3/2014

A month ago I started teaching yin yoga for the first time. It has been an amazing experience. I am so blessed to have been guided to this practice, to have an amazing teacher and to now share it with my community. Yin yoga is a practice that brings you to deep connection with your body and with your mind. It actually teaches us to slow down and feel.

I just completed my A & P online course! I really, really enjoyed doing this. It wasn't quite what i expected, but it was awesome. I learned about all the systems in the body: Introduction to the Living Processes, The human cell(oh and WOW) this lesson blew me away! I KNEW we were made of miracle, but now I really know! Understanding Heredity, The Nervous system, The Skeletal system, The Muscular system, The Respiratory system, The Circulatory system(I think this was my 2nd favorite chapter), The Lymphatic system,The Integumentary and the Urinary systems, The Digestive system, and The Endocrine and Reproductive systems. 
I feel ready and am looking forward to A&PII!!!! Oh, annnnd i also scored 100% on the final!!!! fun! :-)

The miracle of us

I am LOVING my A&P class! I am learning so much, it is mind boggling and amazing. Our human bodies are truly a miracle-that is what I have learned the most, in great detail-ya, i knew before, but having every system of the body revealed and explained how it works is just...wow...
Sometimes I def feel overwhelmed by all the material,like I would need to take this course like 5 more times in order to get it all! I have been doing good on my quizzes and assignments and I am eager for the next lessons-so I think that is a good sign for the final in mid April!!! I'm off to learn about the circulatory system ;)

I signed up for an anatomy and physiology course through Western Technical college this week!!! I am super duper excited because I have been geeking out on anatomy for quite some time now! I am so psyched to have a constructive way to learn and study the body and in turn be able to understand my own(and students) body at a deeper level. I know that it is going to add so much to my teaching. Not to mention the great exercise for my brain :)))

The Art of Slow

I am super excited about the new class I am offering! First off-It is a candlelight yoga class! And second, it is all about slowing down enough to really (((feel))) your body, to fOcUS on your breathing:::to absolutely check-in with your being. What DO you feel?!?! Where is your edge-can you honor and love it fully?! Teaching yourself to come BACK to the breath---to experience any emotions that come up and simply let them wash over you....This practice is based on the principles of Yin yoga, when we go deeper-hold poses longer, where we go to the connective tissues(namely the sheath of fascia that covers our body) affecting our bodies at an even MORE cellular level! But thats not all friends!>>> we will do some basic breathing techniques, some meditation, some chanting and ALOT of feeling good! I promise: you will feel different after this experience <3

yoga & power tools

PictureThe guys working on their loud project.lol.
Yoga really is being able to flow, keep centered and breathe At any moment,in any situation. So today,I show up for my weekly class. I arrive to a screw gun, 3 guys, another lady working, room in total dis-array. The nice lady says-oh, sorry, I'm supposed to tell you this was the only time they had to do this building project...I say, no prob, not ideal, but all is well... So I sit and wait for my students. I do warm ups while listening to the lovely hum of the drill. Now it's 5 after-no one has shown up...I stretch deeper while sitting here in the chair.  Then it clicks::: this IS WHAT YOGA IS ALL ABOUT!!!! To breathe, be easy, roll with the punches, delve deeper into self-yet become infinite to expand and see things with more clarity. How do I ((FEEL)) IF I AM ANNOYED? HOW DO I ((FEEL)) IF I THINK THIS SITUATION IS HILARIOUS?!?!? It's about keeping your Center with ease with Grace without any anger.  The clarity gained also helps you to ask questions, to hatch new ideas to be open to new inspiration. Doing your yoga practice encourages all these things. It's like cleaning the slate.

Yoga everyday

8/26/2013

Do you do yoga/stretches everyday?! Whether you have a full on daily practice, just a few times a week or here and there-its ALL good! If you are one of my readers that just practices weekly or even just sometimes(when your body hurts, and you KNOW you need to stretch) I encourage you to try, just for a week, being conscious of stretching everyday-if that means a reminder from your phone-do it! Or added to your "to-do" list-do it! Whatever it takes to get your MIND in the habit of remembering your BODY!!!>>>Dont worry about figuring out a whole space in your day for a full yoga session-instead try this: Do a forward bend while your morning beverage brews, do a down dog with hands pushing on the counter, swing your arms up and open and take a deep breath as yopu arch back, catch your foot on the step and stretch your calf...you get the idea :))) Now fast forward-its 11:30 your little "stretch alarm" goes off, your at your job-what can you do in your chair? mmmm some neck rolls, some wrist stretches, deep breathes....now its 7:00, your yoga class isnt tonight-howabout striking a pose or two in the living room, how about stretching while you watch that show?!
Yoga can be anytime-anywhere,right?!?!?! Its just a matter of getting yourself in the habit, and starting out gently is how to do it-and you WILL feel the difference, i promise. No need to set lofty goals, start simple friends <3 There is a very good chance it will evolve into a deeper personal practice. And hey, if it doesnt-NO BIG DEAL keep enjoying your little mini stretch breaks!

Always practicing

No matter how many years I have done yoga, no matter how many teachers, no matter how many trainings, no matter how many books-I am always still practicing-its never over, never done. Yoga is a lifelong commitment I have made. Carving away time in each day to stretch a little and sometimes ALOT. I stretch my body and I stretch my mind. Carving new grooves in this mind of mine, by being steadfast and one pointed in my practice. Yoga seeps into every particle of my being, of my life-sometimes i completely miss the correlation of the physical practice with the mind practice...but its all inter-connected...just like everything else.

A Deepak Chopra Quote I love

4/11/2013

"We are all inextricably connected to a field of awareness that is infinite, unbounded, and eternal. Meditation, yoga and other practices give us direct access to this field of awareness. By allowing our intentions to drop into this state of silence and joy, we put ourselves into the best position for those intentions to manifest."
