The weather seems to be a hot topic, particularly when it's cold, for one who practices yoga it is a useful reminder of the nature of impermanence, all things change, all the time.

Dear friend , I hope you are enjoying the spring spirit, the long days with lots of sun light, and nature being cheerful and colorful. Check out the previous email I sent about breathing through your nose which is extra important these days with all the small particles floating in the air ;-) I recently had a short talk with a curious person after class regarding the role yoga can play in the process of transforming our habitual patterns and tendencies. During class I emphas

Dear friend , Hope you are at peace and enjoying good health, taking in the good air, especially as the days are getting longer and the sun is getting brighter. Here is something about me that I want to share with you - I love to breathe :-) The breath is such a vital part of our life however we almost always ignore and take it for granted. Imagine an anecdotal scenario in which someone is holding your head under water. At that moment the most important thing on your mind wou
