Exercise Your Empathy.by Suzanne Jones on Jan 14, 2013 Admittedly, I am not your average yogi. I can’t get behind all the suhka-duhkah-mudra-mantra business and in the face of all things woo-woo I find myself just thinking…huh? Though I wouldn’t necessarily call myself a cynic, I confess that I don’t just blindly believe what someone is telling me simply because they are saying it [...] 2,736 views |
 Breathing like this Can Save Lives.by Suzanne Jones on Dec 4, 2012 It’s accessible immediately, works in seconds, creates changes in the brain and is also something that you were born knowing how to do. 3,783 views |
Breath & Touch: The Elements of Connection & Healing.by Suzanne Jones on Nov 25, 2012 Recently I taught yoga to a young marine whom I met while attending a summit for love and forgiveness in Assisi, Italy. At 27 years old, he had already become defended—his body built and hard—his questions of my work in Haiti and prisons, always concerned with threat and safety. Yet, he had a lovely softness [...] 988 views |

 The Penny on the Record.by Suzanne Jones on Jan 29, 2012 As I looked at these women I could see that they were at a critical point in their lives. And just like me, these women had reached the end of the road.

Inspired by a naked butt. {NSFW}by Suzanne Jones on Jan 14, 2012 Like one of those old couples that you see in a restaurant who just sit there in silence—this was where my body and I had ended up. It was as if we were being forced to spend time together and we accepted that, but we weren’t going to like it 5,549 views |
Dear Married New Mom Sue…(a letter to my new mom self and new moms everywhere)by Suzanne Jones on Jan 3, 2012 First of all, your boobs will return to normal eventually. Those watermelon-sized-hard-as-rock-super-orbs chill out after about four months. You’ve had moldy sour cream in your fridge for longer than that so just ride this one out. 1,358 views |
Here’s to 2012 and a buttload of feeeeeeeeEEEEEeeeeelings!by Suzanne Jones on Jan 2, 2012 We waited there—suspended in time—as my father just stared at whatever it was. Then he lowered his face into his hands and began to weep. 522 views |
Think you have nothing in common with a woman in prison? Think again…by Suzanne Jones on Dec 15, 2011 Corrine (along with the other women) would lie peacefully while her dog curled up next to her and for that moment in time she felt at peace—and she felt whole—and she felt loved. 1,152 views |

Facebook: A net(work) of Love and Support. ~ by Sue Jonesby Suzanne Jones on Jun 9, 2011 I ran home and turned on my computer. In shock and consumed with grief, I could not control my sobs. Calling a friend was out of the question but I needed something—some outlet for my emotions. I logged on to Facebook and wrote Sue Jones is sad. Instantly I got a response from a friend that simply said I love you. 704 views |
Sexual Healing Through Yoga ~ Sue Jones.by Suzanne Jones on Mar 29, 2011 I had no connection to others by way of touch. In addition, it became clear to me that it was just too dangerous for me to touch my husband unless I was prepared to receive the only form of touch he knew—a touch that I had come to fear and despise. 8,196 views |
Yoga Heals—one breath at a time. {lululemon Tragedy}by Suzanne Jones on Mar 20, 2011 As we sink deeper into this fear we pull away from the world. We pull away from those who can support us. We wrap ourselves in a layer of armor and work to reinforce it so that no one can harm us. But in doing so, we lock out love as well as pain. 1,573 views |
The Lost Bunny ~ Sue Jonesby Suzanne Jones on Mar 14, 2011 I sit on the porch and I look at the bunny, alone and waiting for someone to claim him and love him and it occurs to me that perhaps this bunny is not meant to be found. I think of my own life, the things I have clung to and the people who I thought were meant to be a part of it forever. 650 views |
