Day 19: Back at it
So… I got back into yoga in May and then… GOT SICK AGAIN! I’ve had more colds this year than I can ever remember having. I’ve started eating better and taking a rigorous vitamin regimen to prevent...

I’m so pleased to have made it yoga three times this week. This morning’s class was with one of my favourite instructors, whose sequence gave my body everything it needed. Twists, folds, and balancing...

Day 24: Rain
Today is the grossest day. It’s been raining since last night in Toronto. Not just any rain. Nasty, cold, windy, sideways rain that no umbrella can properly shield you from. I got pretty soaked on my...

Day 25: Hips again
A noon yoga class was just what my body needed. My cold culminated in an ear infection and now I’m smack in the middle of a course of antibiotics. Fun. Either way my practice felt really strong and...

Day 26: Summer
I only just made it to 11 a.m. reduced-heat yoga today. But I’m so glad I did. I still don’t feel 100% myself, I imagine I will once I’m off these antibiotics. Sigh. But it was still a lovely,...

Day 30: Good mornings
Definitely feeling more alive today. I went to 7 a.m. core yoga this morning and got my ass kicked with a series of crunches and planks (I know I shouldn’t be surprised). Felt great afterward though....

Days 31-33: Three times a week
I’ve been out of school for two weeks now and managed to go to yoga six times. Clearly not being in school (and working from home) makes it much, much easier for me to get to yoga. What isn’t as easy...

Blended Holidays for Blended Families
Growing up, Christmas Day wasn’t the most important day for me. My family did have a small artificial Christmas tree, a few decorations here and there and Christmas lights; but the majority of my...

I Believe Survivors
I am speechless, but sadly not surprised about the outcome of Jian Ghomeshi’s first trial. I believe that he hurt the four women who took the witness stand, and likely many others. I believe Lucy. Of...
