I’m about to go for a run. It’s dreary out and that’s great running weather!
But first – a few random thoughts turning around in my mind today:
- The strawberry “scones” I made yesterday turned out more like a cake. I need to use frozen Earth Balance, knead the dough, and use dried fruit

instead of fresh. Can’t wait to try this again but I keep eating the finished products and that needs to stop right now! Any volunteers out there willing to eat the results of my baking forays?
- I’ve been reading about eating just two meals per day – breakfast and then a later lunch, around 130pm or so. I’m not sure I could do that but apparently eating that way is conducive to better sleep since your body isn’t working on digesting your dinner. What do you think? I ate popcorn last night and then slept horribly so I’m starting to wonder…
- Since I slept so poorly, I woke up late and missed doing my yoga practice today. I’m going to try to fit it in tonight and if that doesn’t work I’m going to journal about it so at least I’m keeping my thoughts on my practice. Oh and I learned yesterday that it’s actually FORTY days, not 21, to build a new habit. So I’m halfway there
- A student told me today that she’s learned through her home practice that there is tremendous value in the stillness between asanas. Isn’t that awesome?
- I’d like to vary my workouts. I’d like to get the P90X but it seems like such a huge financial commitment after buying the weights and the pull-up bar and the bands and the videos. Are there any good, less expensive alternatives to P90X out there?
- I just started brushing M+R’s teeth on a daily basis. It’s pretty easy and only takes a few minutes. They love the poultry flavored toothpaste!
I told you that they were gonna be random!

don’t waste money on that stuff, just get more variety by choosing different activities like kayaking, a dance class or rock climbing. if you want to check out the rock climbing gym in Sterling, Ben and I can go with you and “show you the ropes” – LOL!
the stillness between asanas… i love it!! (following our conversation from the other day).
