Shine like the Sun!
Today’s hand mantra was inspired by the INCREDIBLE weather we’re having here in NJ. I was sitting at my computer this morning thinking about what makes someone or something attractive. What attracts me to a yoga teacher a business coach, a life partner? Underneath the exterior, it’s always the same thing. Radiance. The inner-glowing that […]

Hand Mantras and Little Reminders….

Tattoos, OMducation and Change
What’s up with hippies and tattoos? Yoga teachers and tattoos? Punk rockers and tattoos? Is it just art on skin or is it something more? The tattoos that I do have (only 3!) have marked significant time periods in my life. So important when I got them, but as time, and the bright colors of […]

One of my greatest challenges as a yoga instructor is my personal practice. Sounds silly, I teach 5 yoga classes a week, a personal practice should be a piece of cake, right? Wrong. oh so very wrong. It seems as if the hardier my teaching schedule is the less “time” I have for my own […]

Slow Down, Be Thankful, Enjoy the Moment
Who doesn’t feel as if there aren’t enough hours in the day? I regularly try to pack 36 into 24. Often we rush through the day, running here and there, and end up exhausted. I have definitely been guilty of this in the past few weeks. Somehow these days full of duties, obligations and busyness […]
