I have sciatica. It started in March, as a different sort of pain that didn’t seem like sciatic nerve pain at the time. A doctor (not my regular doctor) diagnosed it at SI joint pain. He said there was not much I could do about it, because he believed it to be caused by Zoe. [...]

Today Zoe brought me my yoga mat and said, “mommy yoga”. So we did some yoga together.
On Sunday I hit a new personal best! I successfully managed Bakasana (crane pose) for about 15 seconds. It was my first time ever balancing on my hands! It felt very light, and it was [...]

I love yoga (obviously). I also love baking bread. Sometimes, when I’m in the zone, baking bread is like yoga. If you’re present, in the moment, while you’re making the bread it feels just as therapeutic as a nice yoga session. Especially kneading – my favorite part! Today is bread day at my house, and [...]

I’m taking a yoga class with my friend Mar on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at the University gym. And they’re changing the class schedule during spring break (next week)! Jeez!

Seems like we’re getting a lot of snow this spring. Well, it’s not officially spring yet anyway. Oh well.

Yoga and life as we know it

I’ve just moved over from my old blog, looking for a new creative space. I want to focus on the positive things here. There will be some interesting changes coming in my life and my family in the next few months. We’re probably moving in a couple of months! We’ll have [...]
