We had another socially-distanced pop-up poolside yoga class this past Saturday morning. Nine people asked to come, and I hated to turn anyone away (and luckily some of those 9 did not need to social-distance from each other), so we figured out some extra spots in the yard for everyone to be able to attend! …

Socially-Distanced Pop-Up Poolside Yoga!
Last week I wrote about the importance of having continuity to our yoga practice–how easy it had been for my husband and me to fall out of our Monday evening Yin yoga routine, and how we were motivated to get ourselves back into it because we could feel the differences in our bodies and minds. …
Continuity of Practice
Continuity of practice…that phrase has been going through my mind often over the past few weeks. My husband and I are long-time students of the Monday night Yin class at The Yoga Room. So we, of course, are grateful to have the weekly audio sessions that Christina is recording in lieu of in-person classes right …
John Earle: My Friend & ‘Spiritual Guru’
I have known John Earle since 1997, when we worked together as seasonal staff at the Omega Institute for Holistic Studies in New York for 6 months.

Hatha Yoga Sequence For Cultivating A Calm Mind (Theme: Sauca)
Please excuse the less than ideal quality of this video. It was my first attempt at playing around with lighting and sound out in the yoga studio and, I’m going to be honest, having no experience whatsoever with this kind of stuff, it is challenging to get it right. I think it is still decent …
