Cold days call for HOT Yoga

On January 10, 2017 By JordanIn Exercise, YogaLeave a comment

I am one of those people who prefers being hot over being cold. During these winter months my toes are constantly hurting because they are so cold and I get this inner chill that is hard to shake. As a yogi, the best way to escape the bitter temperatures is to head to the nearest …

Personal Practice

On January 7, 2017 By JordanIn Yoga2 Comments

I love the fact that you are constantly learning in yoga. I try to take different types of classes throughout my neighborhood and manhattan whenever I can so that I can continue to add to my knowledge of yoga asana and philosophy. However, then there are those days where I don't feel like heading out …

Your Practice

On March 5, 2016March 5, 2016 By JordanIn Yoga1 Comment

When it comes to your yoga practice remember that it's personal. It can be however you want it to be. It doesn't have to be an hour and a half long class at a studio or some half hour of silent meditation. You can meditate for a minute and have completed your practice for the day. …

Too quiet to sleep

On February 24, 2016 By JordanIn Travel, YogaLeave a comment

I know that I said I would keep you posted about my retreat while I was there. But, the wireless was not as strong as I had expected and I was not able to access my blog while I was away. It was actually incredibly nice to not be hooked into my electronics while enjoying the …

Can You Tell That I’m Smizing?

On February 18, 2016 By JordanIn Travel, YogaLeave a comment

If you're not a Tyra Banks fan I will explain that "smizing" is smiling with your eyes. This afternoon I went for my wedding hair and makeup trial and thought I would share with you all a sneak peak of my eye makeup: So now I'm all done-up with no where to go... Well that's not …

When It’s Below Freezing

On February 13, 2016 By JordanIn YogaLeave a comment

So far this winter has been quite mild. Having grown up in New Jersey I know the bitterness of a supremely cold and snowy winter. Thankfully the past few months have seen the depths of a true winter kept at bay. However, this weekend is revealing the true colors of winter with temperatures in the …

Taking a Moment to Pause

On February 10, 2016 By JordanIn About, YogaLeave a comment

I started with Yoga at 7:30am teaching an Ashtanga class and then I ended my day with Yoga at 7:30pm taking a yoga class. In between I managed to sneak in a nice long nap and teach another yoga class, this time Vinyasa. As someone who used to identify as a runner, it's nice to …

Living Close to Work

On February 9, 2016February 9, 2016 By JordanIn About, YogaLeave a comment

I live about a 20 minute walk away from the studio. Which is great for me because I don't have my own car right now and parking is hard to find in town, not to mention expensive! Walking to the studio is a great time to clear my head, enjoy a new podcast or find …

Sunday Sunday Sunday

On February 7, 2016February 7, 2016 By JordanIn About, YogaLeave a comment

Most people are not too pleased when they realize they have only a few hours left to their weekend. They dread going back to the Monday grind, staring at a computer for hours, and realizing they have very little time for themselves. While I am tired from working all weekend at the studio, and I …

Let’s Go To The Beach

On February 3, 2016February 3, 2016 By JordanIn YogaLeave a comment

Here in Princeton, New Jersey today was a gloomy, rainy, dreary day. As the rain fell and melted the snow I was dreaming of warmer weather and white sandy beaches. So I decided to go on vacation. That is, I had my students throughout the day visualize a tropical beach as a relaxation technique. So if you …
