I’ve yet to do it, but I often feel like I could spend an entire hour in Ragdoll, a variation of Uttanasana. Other than in the partner-based practice of AcroYoga, I have never found an experience in my asana practice that gifts me with as much sweet-deep-down-sigh-and-relax feeling as this pose. As I trust my [...]
Sifting through pictures to write this column, I scope out new asana to explore each month. As I came across this photo of me in a Half Moon pose variation, my first thought (aside from how much I dig my rainbow pants, hehe) was that I couldn’t write about Half Moon again; I already had [...]

Recently, I was struck rather forcefully with the Flu of the Century. It rendered me completely at the mercy of my bed and was the kind of bug that made putting my hair into a ponytail the big to-do of the day. In stark contrast to my usual days, even the thought of yoga made [...]
One of the most influential spiritual books I have read is the trilogy by Neale Donald Walsch, Conversations with God: An Uncommon Dialogue Books 1, 2 and 3. I recently picked up Book 3 after 12 years. It is astonishing that much of what I have been discovering for myself through life experiences and numerous [...]
There seem to be a lot of black-and-white beliefs in life. While some of these beliefs might be true (as in “the world is round”) there are many things, like opinion, that are subject to perspective. To me, being willing to soften my personal perspective and make space for other people’s truths is a gift [...]
