  • How to get 25% Reebok Gear

    Reebok is so great. I’ve been wearing their gear for about a little over a year now and I think it is amazing. I wear their products when I teach stand up paddle board yoga, gym, regular yoga, outdoor hikes and of course the regular daily wear. I love it! The fabric moves very easily.…

  • Parivrtta Janu Sirsasana – Revolved Head to Knee Pose Variation

      I have been inversion obsessed lately. I just wrapped up an inversion workshop on Saturday and have been craving some grounded poses, low to the earth. Now I am still working on my 365 days of handstands every day but besides that, I’m keeping things low and active. This revolved head to knee pose…

  • the handstand project

    I said I was going to do this before. I suck. I lied. I had an injury but really that is just an excuse. My chiropractor who is helping me live pain free said I should lay of headstands but never anything about inversions on my hands. I’m going to try and really focus on…

  • Tattoo removal sucks!

    I have a few tattoos. When I got them, I didn’t even flinch. Tattoo artists and friends have commented on the level of my pain threshold. Forget that, I feel pain but maybe my adrenaline kicks in, whatever. A tattoo removal is a laser treatment used to break down the ink. The session, the actual…

  • Tiger pose – Vyaghrasana

    I don’t make up the names of the poses. I swear. I thought this would be more tricky cat (what I call when hand grabs opposite side foot or ankle) or maybe scoprion. However, a yoga pose book I have calls it Tiger pose AKA Vyaghrasana variation and I googled it and I saw similar…

  • Creating the perfect bedtime ritual

      I know that I need to be as prepared as possible for the morning because as soon as I wake up, I am on the go. After my quick morning medi of course. Medi = meditation! So it is important that I’m rested and prepared for the day to start. I used to dilly…

  • My favorite yoga mat

      I bought my first Manduka PRO Yoga before they started coming out in all the fancy colors and were imprinted with the logo. My Manduka mat is gray and had an adhesive square with the logo somewhere on the top right side of the mat. This must have been around 2010 when I started my…

  • Tremblant, Canada

    This year has been interesting. It is one of those years, I’m ready to risk it all but going to try to be as calculated about it as I can (what does this even mean)? Well, I’ve recently had job shifts, relationship changes and I just moved to a new city (still in Orange County,…

  • Braised Lotus Roots

    This is my favorite favorite (okay everything is my favorite). I love root vegetables (lotus, beets, yams and so on…) This is a good and filling side dish but I actually eat it as a main entrée. Also, instead of soy sauce I use Organic Gluten Free Tamari so you can decide on your sauce of…
