I am inspired by this 102 year old Yoga Teacher!

When a fitness reporter traveled to a village in France to meet centenarian yoga teacher Charlotte Chopin, she was reminded that movement didn’t have to be complicated.

Over the years I have had the opportunity to attend mostly silent retreats. I have benefited greatly from being unplugged! It’s amazing how liberating it can be to be device free.

Happy Labor Day to All!

Happy Labor Day!

Labor Day marks the unofficial end of the summer and the start of the back-to-school season. Observed on the first Monday of September, Labor Day honors the American labor movement and the countless contributions of workers to our nation’s growth.

In the late 1800s, during the height of the Industrial Revolution, many Americans worked 12-hour days, seven days a week, just to get by. Growing labor unions organized strikes and rallies, demanding fair wages, reasonable hours, and safer conditions.

In the wake of this massive unrest and to repair ties with American workers, Congress passed an act making Labor Day a legal holiday and on June 28, 1894, President Grover Cleveland signed it into law.

Today we celebrate the rights, protections, and progress workers fought to secure, and the ongoing work to ensure fairness for all.

I love this post from Jack Kornfield! I know I need reminders. 🛐💜☮️

No matter how large the problems of the world may seem, remember:

The Dharma is always big enough to shine through empires, changes, crisis, and beauty. ✨🌇

If the problems of the world are overwhelming, we must learn to hold it all from a place larger than our grief and despair. ✨🧘‍♀️

Sounds easy to me!

A new study has shown that just seven days of small, daily acts of kindness and gratitude can significantly improve emotional wellbeing.

Here's my take on remaining teachable as a long-time Licensed Massage Therapist.

I received my Massage Therapy Training in the 1980’s. Back then there wasn’t a lot of research based evidence about my profession. There seemed to be some, what I would now call, mythology around the practice of Massage. I have to say I wasn’t adept in critical thinking or questioning my teach...
