Hi Everyone, Things are going great for me right now. My yoga practice is on a roll and I'm feeling great so I'm focusing on maintaining that right now. Janie: Wow, you have gone all hardcore with the pull up/pushup training! That's great! It's been freezing here with some snow and...

Not sure if Bikram would think this violates one of his copyrights, but whenever I stay in an ashram during the summer months we practice outside in the heat.;) The yoga studio I attend in the city is pretty small and it can get pretty hot in there during a class, especially when it's really...

Just a quick check-in. I've continued to use Shiva Rea's Daily Energy. Yesterday I did the Water and the Fire & Water routine which had some arm balance moves. It was challenging, but doable. :) I also like the core add on which i have been adding on at the end. I haven't done Cathe in...

Check out Shiva Rea's Daily Energy. There are seven short practices (20 minutes) that you can do on their own or mix and match. There is also a 7 minute core routine, a 5 minute forward bend routine, and 2 mediatations that you can add on if you like. You get a lot of options on one DVD and can...

We have had two little snow storms, one on Saturday (the day my new yoga classes started) and one on Tuesday. Only about 5cm each time, but it was enough to mess up traffic. We are supposed to get more snow starting tonight until tomorrow at noon so it should make for a fun drive to my yoga...

Hi Stacey, I'm currently doing weight watchers and have lost almost 20lbs. I go to the meetings which keeps me motivated and accountable. My advice is to track everything you eat: "If you bite it, write it!". Good luck!

First of all, thank you for all of your kind words on my weight loss. The last couple of weeks have been a little hard but i'm back on track today and i'm going to weigh in at WW even though i'm pretty sure I gained.:o My leader keeps asking me to start maintenance but i still want to lose a...

I have pretty thick hair naturally, but I find Udo's Oil Blend helps keep it healthy and strong.

Some people are naturally more photogenic than others but it could also be that you just don't know how to relax in front of the camera. One of the reasons an attractive person sometimes appears unattractive in pictures is that in pictures you are seen through a single camera lens as opposed to...

Absolutely! Everyone has to start somewhere. A good instructor should lead a healthy lifestyle and enjoy what they do. Sounds like you are already on the right track.

Just a quick post today. Yesterday i did one of the preset workouts on Shiva Rea's Daily Energy. I have never been a fan of pushups and there were a lot of them in that routine. It's been good getting in more variety into my yoga practice with these Shiva Rea DVD's.

So cute, especially how she's smiling in the last pic.

I don't have kids but I got one of my nephews The Hockey Sweater by Roch Carrier. This is a classic story for kids here in Canada. My nephew passed it down to his two younger brothers now that he has outgrown it and their parents tell me it's still one of their most requested bedtime stories.

I like Ikea but beware that most of their stuff requires assembly. Although it's not high end, it's stylish and affordable. I usually buy more accent pieces and accessories from there as opposed to big pieces of furniture.

Yesterday was my first day back at work and it was really busy.:( For the past two nights i have been doing Shiva Rea's Yogini DVD. This was the one i didn't really like but I wanted to give it a second chance. On Monday i did the whole DVD as is. Since i don't use this one often, I still...

Happy New Year Everyone! I've missed a lot since i last checked in but i'm finally all caught up on reading all of your posts. It was a green Christmas here in Toronto and on New Years Eve the temperature was 6 degrees Celsius which felt like spring. It's getting cold again but we still...

I really like Shiva Rea's DVD's. She usually has a matrix or chapter menu which allows you to create your own workout or just do a shorter session. If you are a beginner i would recommend her Flow Yoga for Beginners.

I've been enjoying my time off but keeping busy getting ready for Christmas. My shopping is done but i still have to wrap a couple of more gifts. I bought a pair of Nike's as a Christmas gift and the store was having a buy one, get the 2nd pair at 50% off so i got myself a pair of Reebok easy...

I think that this applies to work in general. People feel entitled. They expect to come out of school and start at the top rather than paying their dues and working their way up.

No offense taken! I can't stand her! I really believe if you are willing to work you can find SOMETHING. You may not make as much $ as you did at your last job or you may not start at the top or even really like the job but you do what you need to do to get by. I realize the economy is bad...
