Another standing posture!
As we continue to branch out into the endless world of asanas, let us not forget our roots! (I am wearing an Austin City Limits shirt in this video- totally planned- to show my roots.) As our poses get further away from the ground and slowly begin to look fancier and...
Downward Facing Blog. My boyfriend thought of that. Not me.
Oh, Downward Dog! Let me count the ways you have changed and continue to change. You are a shapeshifter and a magical mirror.

Cue music and LeVar!
“Butterfly in the Sky…” It’s true I had butterflies on the mind when I sat down to write this. (Better there than in my belly.) And, yes, it is true that I went to YouTube and listened to the Reading Rainbow theme song before I could...
I once heard a teacher say, “You are only as young as your spine is flexible.”
