Getting My Yoga Teacher Training in India
It’s been two months since I came back from my 200-hour Vinyasa + Ashtanga yoga teacher training in India at The Rishikesh Vinyasa Yoga School, and the question I’ve been getting from everyone is “How was it!? Tell me all about it” But how the hell do I summarize 30 days of yoga, laughing,…

Mindful during the busy Holiday season
For most of us the to do list in December is so long, that it is difficult to find some quiet, ME time. But for me personally these are exactly the times where I need that the most. I feel like I am a much calmer, stress-free, focused and aware of my own feelings and…
Live a life of balance
Changing your lifestyle can be daunting, but it is oh so worth it. I recently watched a nutrition talk and one of the messages really resonated with me: “You have no time to waste to start taking care of your health.” I think a lot of young people think that just because they are young…
My experience with TM
For years I have been interested in meditation, but I only started about a year ago. I had read a lot of material on this topic, but I never really felt confident enough in my knowledge to give it a try. When I started, I decided to go with a really simple technique – for…
