This week has been a beautiful blur.
I have spent a ton of time in the studio both teaching and practicing. I took an extended break from my practice over the summer and into the fall and it feels so good and so right to be back to it. The energy at the studio with the launch of our new schedule has been really amazing and I just want to be there all the time. I’ve been meeting tons of new yogis and seeing lots of familiar faces. This week has BLOWN our expectations and more. My heart is happy. I’m exactly where I am supposed to be.
It’s been a “maximum go mode week” that has required the double fisting of kombucha and coffee (I joked on Instagram that I’m a walking yoga teacher stereotype). I think I’ve averaged 1-2 shots of espresso + 2 cups of coffee per day. No coffee, no prana! 🙂
And Sullie’s like, “Mom, do what you’ve gotta do…just don’t wake me up early.” Girl loves her sleep.
I received multiple requests to share my playlist from last weekend’s yoga classes. It’s a mix of old and new favorites and my students loved it.
Gosh, where do I even start with my top picks here? I love them all. Download them all! I will say that it was fun to see how many people loved the Nelly addition to the playlist and were singing along/requesting more.
Just a quick update for you tonight. It’s late and I need to get to bed. I have a big day tomorrow including lots of training, teaching and the start of photography for the yoga book.
What’s your favorite coffee drink? Any favorite songs?

I am sitting down to write this post with teary eyes and a heavy heart. On New Year’s Eve we said goodbye to Zoey. It seems like only yesterday that I brought this fluffy nugget home. Many of you have been here with me since Zoey was a puppy. She was the sweetest little sister [...]

It’s hard to believe that it’s been almost a month since I ran the Every Woman’s Marathon! One of the fun things about this year’s race was getting to visit Scottsdale, Arizona. It was my first time in Arizona and while it was a quick trip, I tried to maximize my time there. Here’s a [...]

In keeping with tradition, I’m coming in hot with a last-minute gift guide. As much as I’d like to think that one day I’ll be the kind of person who has their holiday shopping done before Black Friday…it’s just not a likely scenario. And I’m okay with that! I hope this list helps you finish [...]

I am settled in back at home after a very special Thanksgiving in Florida. I cherish all of our trips to Florida but this one was extra meaningful because we had a bigger holiday crew this year. My cousin’s family came down and it was just the best to have a big tableful of people [...]

I am on a three-hour flight home from Scottsdale so it seems like the perfect time to relive and recap yesterday’s Every Woman’s Marathon experience. I had a great day and I’m very proud of the race that I ran. It was a practice in “fun running” and that not every race effort has to [...]
