Almond Milk Iced Coffee
How did Monday get here so fast?! This weekend seemed to zip by, while at the same time feeling kind of slow. We finally got some blue sky and sunny weather here in Seattle yesterday! Yippee!! I totally got tricked into thinking it was warm outside - until I stepped out the door. Regardless th...
Yoga in its essence - MEDITATION

Yoga in its essence - PREPARES
Yoga “prepares” in advance for something. Prepares for what? For instance, for ATHLETES it prepares them for their sport activity by warming up their body before they participate. Yoga, warm up, stretching to me are all synonyms…. For busy WORKERS, going through a simple 8 minute yoga routine first thing... Continue reading

Yoga in its essence - REVERSES

Upper Body Strength Exercises Being Critical for Women
The fact that women lack natural upper body strength is not a secret. On average, men's upper body strength is often equal to their lower body strength. Women’s upper body strength equals only about 50% of their lower body strength. For example, most men who can bench press 100 pounds... Continue reading
