Welcome friends!

This is a forum to share tips, advice and ideas about nutrition, fitness and well-being. I also invite you to join me in my yoga practice at 24 Hour Fitness. It is an 1 hour vinyasa yoga class, also called "flow" yoga. The poses move fluidly, the breath linking each pose to the next. This practice will create strength, flexibilty, endurance and balance leading to a sense of wellness and mental awareness. I hope to see you there! The class schedule will be updated on the blog as it changes.

New Class

Hey all! Long time no blog...

Starting next week I will be leading a new class on Tuesday nights. It's late, 8:30-9:30 pm, so it will be a great opportunity to get rid of tension and relax before bed!

In honor of the new class I wanted to share some yoga poses to try at home to promote relaxation on days when you can't make it to class:
1. Alternate nostril breathing: a great way to calm and balance the mind
2. Cat/Cow: helps ease back tension, a good way to unwind after sitting at work
3. Child's pose: relieves low back tension, a place where so many of us hold on to stress
4. Thread the needle: a great way to open up through the neck and shoulders
5. Take 5 minutes in a quite place to sit and meditate

Aaahhhhh......
