Lessons in Life, Business and Yoga
There’s something I’ve been meaning to open up about on here (and in life). Not only to get it out of my own system and release the energy, but because I know there are other people that have been there. Acknowledging this is like trying to roll a bowling ball up a hill with your […]

Yogini Stylin + Geeky Virgo Post-it Notes
Today I was wasting precious morning moments on Facebook. (Yes, it’s a time sucker, but it’s also an integral part of growing your business, and this social media junkie loves it). I am a member of a ton of Facebook Groups (probably too many) but I am pretty active in a couple of yoga ones. […]

Om Sweet Om
This morning I practiced yoga with a group of friends, family and yoga teachers. It was morning satsang and kirtan in celebration of my dear friend Lauren’s birthday. It was the first practice I have done in months. That seems shocking to say out loud. When I got the invitation in the mail a few […]

Hurricanes, Office Fashion and the Crazy Professor in the Women’s Studies Department
You can take the yoga teacher out of the yoga room, but… For the past 5 or so years my daily wardrobe has consisted of yoga pants, organic tees and cozy wraps. When I started working full time again I definitely needed to make some shifts to my wardrobe. You just can’t get away with […]

IMperfect(ions)
One of my greatest challenges as a yoga instructor is my personal practice. Sounds silly. When I was teaching, I taught 5 yoga classes a week. You would think a personal practice should be a piece of cake, right? Wrong. oh so very wrong. One of the biggest reasons I scaled-back on teaching was the […]

More curves in the road of life…..
Life is always interesting and ever changing. Change is one of those things that I have always thrived on. When I was younger, I would create change by simply packing my bags and starting fresh in a new city. The older you get, it seems that the less geographically mobile you can be. I’m not […]

Keeping Motivated
When I was doing my Soul Sweat vinyasa training, one of the required readings was Effortless Prosperity by Bijan. It’s a good little book about living life, it has daily affirmations meant to guide you towards that good life. I sort of likened it to a dumbed down, modern day version of Book 1 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 […]

Loka Samasta Sukhino Bhavantu
Mantra makes me happy. I may not have the best chanting voice, but simply grumbling out of tune makes my heart sing. It simply puts a smile on my face. I stop caring about what I sound like or if I pronounced the sanskrit words perfectly and I just settle into the mantra. It makes […]

It’s NEVER too late to change what you want to BE when you GROW up
For me, after each New Year celebration I take time for reflection and rebirth. As I look back on 2010 I am amazed at at the growth Sprouting Wellness experienced. We grew our Facebook fanpage from 0 to over 600 fans, helped 11 women along their path to wellness, assisted in 3 births, taught yoga […]
