Travel Blog: 1) The Road to Bulgaria

It’s remarkably astounding ….. the profound exhale of relief that emanated from my lungs the moment I turned off my iPhone5.  Not just for an hour, or an evening, but for 10 whole days, as I embark on a yoga journey halfway across the globe.  An unexpected yet exhilarating wave of freedom washed over me as I […]

INSPIRE Me: Danielle Paige

I really believe that the energy we put out into the world comes back to us. Well… I guess I must be doing SOMETHING right to have so many wonderful, talented, generous people to brighten my world, enliven my spirit, and make me a better person for knowing them. SO. In an effort to “pay it forward”, I am going to pass my good fortune on to YOU, and create a blog series called “INSPIRE me” to introduce you to one of these incredible people each installment. I hope you enjoy their talents and gifts and spirit as much as I have!

2012 has been the year of saying “YES” to life.  for me…. so much of what I consider my yoga practice occurs miles and miles off my mat.  it occurs high above the ground on a flying trapeze, or miles into the ocean on a deep sea fishing adventure.  My practice manifests in a joyful […]
