Asteya – Week 3
*Sunset from one of my favorite places, Seabrook, Washington. A moment of peace away from all the things.* This week we are talking about the third Yama – Asteya, which means non-stealing. For a recap of the first two Yamas click here and here. Most of us know that taking or stealing something that isContinue reading “Asteya – Week 3”
Satya – Week 2
View of my garden, St. Francis of Assisi – Patron saint of animals & nature and my newly potted plants. The garden brings me to my truest self. Week 2 – Satya — Truthfulness As we continue on the journey of studying the Eight Limbs of Yoga, we come to the second of the yamas,Continue reading “Satya – Week 2”
Wordle.
*Screenshot of my Wordle a few weeks ago, when I just couldn’t figure it out… Wordle. This little game has added new joy to my morning routine. Not just because its fairly easy and quick to play (here’s a run down of the game if you are not familiar) but because since I started playing,Continue reading “Wordle.”
Not Perfect… But Ok
I set up my mat and blocks and waited until 10am rolled around. I was excited to be teaching my first, online, at home yoga class for the employees at Expedia. 10:15 passed and as it got to be 10:20 I realized no one was coming to my thirty minute online class. While preparing forContinue reading “Not Perfect… But Ok”

It’s a beautiful reminder of how we might move through the world, using mindfulness, to observe ourselves without a harsh and critical eye. It also ties in perfectly to one of my words for the year: Compassion. My suggestion forContinue reading “Self-Observation without Judgement”
Beat the Blues this Holiday Season
*Photo Credit: Real Simple – another great article re: holiday stress I was browsing through some of my older blogs today and came across an article I wrote for my blog and Red Tricycle a few years ago. The concept was a letter to myself over the holidays, a reminder that I actually do enjoyContinue reading “Beat the Blues this Holiday Season”
Shadows
I listen to Glennon Doyle’s; We Can Do Hard Things podcast often when I walk. Today I tuned into episode #36 Writing & Art. One of the things I loved hearing about is her early writing process and the idea of just writing what you write, not editing and then just posting. Once again goingContinue reading “Shadows”
Social Media Detox
Scrolling, scrolling, losing track of time. What is everyone up to? Where are the cute dogs? Maybe I will find some yoga inspiration. Down time, pick up my phone and find the social media. Mainly Facebook and Instagram. I find myself sitting in the same place after twenty minutes, maybe even an hour. Where hasContinue reading “Social Media Detox”
Full Moon Intentions
The arrival of the full moon is an opportunity to check in with ourselves. We might not always align with what mystics and shamans have to say about the moon and its meaning for the various phase it is in, but sometimes we do. This week I have been buying into the Power Path’s updateContinue reading “Full Moon Intentions”
