Like many here in Boulder, Alfalfa’s opening both excited and drew curiosity throughout the community. We love the mom and pop stores, where small businesses are hailed and supported. I believe in these businesses whole-heartedly to the point that I am willing to pay more for their operation. But how much should that cost?393 views

So I tried it. I took three days off over my holiday and sat on the beach, walked along, played, did some restorative poses, listened to relaxing music… and because I realized how hard I had been on myself, cried myself clean.302 views

Everybody slips into a funk from time to time. I’m talking about an “ignore every call-I don’t wanna meditate, I’m eating apple pie and ice cream” kinda funk... So, I offer you these three non-spiritual remedies for the common funk.2,188 views

The obvious catch-22 here is that for a new yoga teacher to become a studio’s ideal pick, the teacher either needs to be great friends with a studio and hope that the studio will hire soon, or get started on building a solid reputation and client base.538 views

I was told that the recuperation was much shorter then an open procedure and that I could be up and around, nearly back to normal life after 3 weeks time. Sign me up! I had my son’s Bar Mitzvah fast approaching and I wanted to be able to have this behind me. If I could have the surgery within two weeks I would have exactly three weeks to recuperate before his big day. Perfect – until it wasn’t.1,499 views

If you are concerned with your health, the environment and the way we grow our food read the "Meat Eaters Guide".

On the other hand...362 views

Amidst the many pearls of wisdom that drop on my head through regular Yoga practice, one has proven more valuable than most. It’s related to female hormones. So gents, while I recommend you keep reading if you want to be in the know with some pretty critical biology, you’d do best to adjust expectations just a bit...416 views

Padmasambhava said that although many scriptures say that you must have a male form to achieve enlightenment, Tantra teaches that the female form, already receptive by nature is a quicker vehicle for seeing the ultimate emptiness of existence...1,283 views

I nearly stopped myself from posting this for fear that it would offend some readers who are therapists or who have therapists, but as those individuals already know without a doubt that I am not their therapist, I concluded it would cause no confusion.839 views
