A CHEF’S WIFE/ YOGA TEACHER’S GUIDE ON HOW NOT TO MAKE AN “ASANA” OUT OF YOURSELF…
OFF THE MAT AND IN THE KITCHEN!
To kale with it!
Greetings and I hope you all had a nice long weekend, for those of you (NOT me) that had yesterday off in honor of Martin Luther King Day! When I was a kid, I always referred to said day as Martin Luther "the King" Day because for some reason, that was how it had...
Do you yoga?
Now that we're in a new year, I'm constantly getting approached by strangers and friends alike telling me "I'll see you in yoga!" and then of course I don't see them and every time afterwards, when I do see them elsewhere, it's awkward and they're like "Oh, I meant to...
Sore today or sorry tomorrow?
We're officially a week into the New Year and as usual yoga classes are packed, there's no parking at the gym and everyone is in high gear with their resolutions. I'm not really a big resolution setter because I try to give up too much at one time and it always ends...
Knock a little louder sugar!
It's a New Year, it's a New You! I am still feeling overly stuffed and sugared-out from all the festivities over the past month or so, how about you? And for some reason I can't stop drinking champagne! This is not a huge problem to have I suppose but I'm fooling...
Leave your home yoga practice… at HOME!
This has been a post in the making for sometime now. Every time I harp on something that annoys people in the yoga world; cell phone use, chewing gym, running late or skipping savasana, I always get a comment from someone that says, "you should do a blog about people...
No time like the present
It may not look or feel like Christmas here on the Central Coast with the 80 degree weather and the green grass coming back in, but it sure tastes like Christmas inside of the Yummy Yogini kitchen! The last two days I've spent baking up a storm and with this weather...
Healthy Detachment
The discussions that my last two posts sparked is one of the reasons why I write this here blog. Besides sharing recipes and stories, I love hearing all of your opinions and thoughts and I'm inspired by how many of you took the time to comment, email, and contact me...
No Yamas, No Yoga
Yesterday's post on cell phone use in the studio sure started a lot of commentary, positive and negative, so thanks for reading and responding! Most of you thought it was "morally" wrong to even bring your phone into the studio, nevermind actually using it to text,...
Stop bringing your cell phones to yoga! Starting NOW!
The other night I was hanging out with a bunch of yoga teachers, red wine included, and we started talking about some of the hilarious students we've had over the years. Just like when we were yoga students, and not yet teachers, we would chat about the teacher who...
Don’t stew on it!
I can't believe I'm writing this post outside and it's 76 degrees out. I am a little bent out of shape that I am not in New England or Chicago playing in the snow, taking a winter stroll, drinking hot chocolate or even in a hat for that matter! I've worn my Uggs three...
Get full and get fit!
And just like that Thanksgiving is over and Christmas is less than a month away! What a funny holiday Thanksgiving is... don't you think? We spent all day cooking huge portions of food dosed with butter and cream and other ingredients that are really good for us (NOT)...
Keep the pie OFF your thighs!
Let the craziness begin, eh?! My Ma sent me my annual Advent calendar so it's officially the start of the holidays for me. I don't know any other 34-year-olds who still get one from their Ma, and I'm fine with that... my Ma loves me more than your Ma does, obviously!...
