Living the Life Yoga

I am going to have a live yoga class tomorrow (Monday) morning at 9:00amCT.
It will be about 45 minutes with movement and stillness.

You can join me live or watch it when it works for you. Videos are available for 30 days in Facebook.

See you tomorrow!

Happy Sunday! I am meeting my running besties at 8am and my fingers are crossed that the rain waits until we are done this week. After our run we’re going for breakfast. Before Covid we went for breakfast every Sunday after our run.

Next week is the Queen City Marathon (QCM) weekend runs. For years I ran the half-marathon then started running 10k with the Pace Team. My daughter did too!

Your time is precious friends. Yes, there are always things to do in your house, buying groceries or doing laundry on a Sunday but don't forget to take care of yourself. Your time is precious and so are you. Also, remember to dance!

Happy Saturday! I was tidying my yard and slowly getting ready for the end of summer. I like to cut plants down and clean the soil to get ready for the time when we receive our first frost. We’ve had so many beautiful flowers that it’s so nice to be outside.

This week I made Tomato-Basil Sauce and it was delicious with pasta for supper with family. We have grown both tomatoes and basil so it’s great to go into the yard to get vegetables and herbs. As my tomatoes are getting ripe we’re definitely eating many for meals!

I hope you enjoy today and are able to spend some time with family and friends. 😊

Happy Friday and TGIF! Just like last Friday the morning is starting quite different. This morning there is a fog advisory but the forecast is 27C later today. 🤔

It’s been a busy, great week. It was my mother’s 90th birthday yesterday and we celebrated with family at The Royal Regina Golf Club. My mom had many people wish her a happy birthday and she enjoyed her day.

Take in some fresh air, do a bit of yoga to relax your body, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy a happy hour beverage of your choice. 🍷🍺🍸🍹 Have a great day!

Happy Wednesday! Here’s a view more photos of yoga with my East African teacher colleagues. 🥰

Tonight I’m teaching yoga at 5:45pm Hips & Hamstrings class at Bodhi Tree Yoga. Register on Bodhi Tree Yoga or use MINDBODY app. Tonight the cost is $5!

This class is a combination of held postures, slow flow and balance. The balance postures help to increase the strength of your hip stabilizers and core muscles which help us stay upright with good posture.

Find the balance in your day - time for you and time for the other people in your life friends.

Happy Tuesday and Happy First Day of September! My sister and brother-in-law are coming today, two of my granddaughters start school tomorrow and my mom’s 90th birthday is on Thursday. It’s a happy start to September! 🥰

I am walking to Karen’s yoga class this morning at Bodhi Tree Yoga during Tapas Week for $5 yoga classes. It’s not raining today so it will be nice to be outside.

I love this September Yoga Challenge for strength. 🤔 I might make a daily video of each yoga pose just to show that I’m actually doing it!!

Find the happiness and joy in your day. Spend some time with family and friends. Also, make sure to get outside and smile!

Happy Monday! There’s sun shining but rain is in the forecast like yesterday. The high today is 18C which is interesting after last week in the plus 30C. 🤔

I’m teaching a $5 yoga class during Tapas Week Wednesday at 5:45pm Hips & Hamstrings at Bodhi Tree Yoga. Check out all the other $5 yoga classes too!

In the Hips & Hamstrings class we start with a mindful check-in, stay in postures to relax and stretch tissues then do a slow flow (3 breaths) to work on range of motion, length and strength.

Have a wonderful day friends and smile!

Happy Sunday! I went for a run this morning with a running bestie. It wasn’t raining when we started but the last 2km it was pouring! We both said that it’s hard to start running in the rain but we can keep running if it starts raining. There was also some thunder and lightning so it’s good that we finished.

I stopped and took a picture of the Legislative building as we ran by because it looked so beautiful.

Your time is precious friends. Yes, there are always things to do in your house, buying groceries or doing laundry on a Sunday but don't forget to take care of yourself. Your time is precious and so are you. Also, remember to dance!

Happy Friday and TGIF! It’s a very cloudy and windy morning. The strange part is that it’s supposed to get to 32C today. 🤔
I’m going to do yoga this morning at home then take my granddaughters on a picnic lunch. The summer has gone quickly so I want to spend more time with them before school starts next week.

This was our last evening all together in Nairobi. We’ve been working together since 2010 with Education Beyond Borders.

Take in some fresh air, do a bit of yoga to relax your body, spend time with family and friends, and enjoy a happy hour beverage of your choice. 🍷🍺🍸🍹 Have a great day!
