    52 WoC – Week 3

    I’ve been circling around the idea of the whole self for a couple of days figuring out how to talk about the parts of me that I often leave hidden or just don’t talk about much because they feel inappropriate for the setting/group, they feel braggy, or they feel outside of what people typically know…

    Life Lessons from a Puppy

    It’s now been almost three weeks since we brought home our puppy, Cookie. It’s been filled with joy, puppy nibbles, a number of accidents, and plenty of opportunities to learn. Through the chaos one thing that made our lives immediately better was when my husband was exploring options for dog trainers. He met with one…

    Where the Spirals Meet

    Today we ventured down to Provo to pick up my Bodhi Yoga 7 Chakras Mind & Body – Advanced Chakra Therapy Certification manual. It felt like a return home in some ways because when I was working on my 200-hour Teacher Certification I found out by our second session I was pregnant with my second…

    52 WoC – Week 2

    If you’re following along with my blog you’ve seen I had a moment of clarity happen for me earlier this week. A path between the different things I felt I could pursue for my life suddenly felt like it was illuminated and I had a way forward. That was pretty cool. So, for our second…

    My Yoga Journey Continues

    A funny thing happened. I wrote the post about my yoga journey and the next day I had the thought to create a resource talking about mindfulness techniques. Simple things people could do to help manage the stress of life. I ended up talking to my husband about it and it was like all of…

    My Yoga Story

    I’ve done yoga off and on since I was a teen. I remember taking a community yoga class with my mom and a couple of her friends once and watching Rodney Yee classes on VHS before you could find yoga classes on TV or YouTube. Back then yoga for me was about the physical aspects…

    I hope you’re ready to join me on 52 Weeks of Contemplation that starts tomorrow. In preparation for this exploration I wanted to share some of the things I’m going to be using throughout the year. First, I created a playlist! Yeah, music is life to me so I love having a good soundtrack for…

    52 Weeks of Contemplation

    In my last post I mentioned not having my goal setting process completed for the year. I’m feeling ok with that but I also didn’t want to not start on the couple of things that felt right for this year. One of them is to work through 52 Weeks of Contemplation. The idea that came…
