Yesterday morning I was teaching an Open Flow yoga class and it was so sunny that I had to close the shades so that people weren't blinded. But by the end of the day snowflakes had replaced the sun's rays, coating the earth in a fresh white blanket. You have to love the east coast …

Not-So Desperate Housewife
My work schedule might consist of odd hours. But I assure you that I work more than full-time even though I get to sleep in most days. I usual manage the wellness studio starting in the early afternoon through the late evening. And on my days off from managing, I actually teach yoga classes. So during my …
Personal Practice
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 …
Juicing
I have a hunch that sales of juice cleanses and juicer machines go way up in January...again just a hunch 😉 And I have to admit to helping those sales last year when I purchased my juicer as I embarked on my Gratitude Cleanse. But unlike most people who end up using their new-fangled machine for a …
Too quiet to sleep
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?
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 …

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
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
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
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 …
