I hope school is off to a great start for everyone. It probably feels good to get back to (and for me, establish) some routine in our days.  As I am figuring out my routine, part of that exploration is trying out the different yoga studios here. There are so many and it is a…

The summer really feels like it’s ending…. well not the weather here in Florida but school is starting and I am turning my focus to my upcoming retreat in October. I am so excited to be traveling back to Thatch Caye in Belize with 17 students for a wonderful adventure.  Last week I traveled very…

Hi Everyone, August is here and with the heat also comes the looming end of summer. A week from today I head north to North Carolina to drop my daughter off at college for her freshman year. Just typing these words makes me choke up a bit. As many of you know, I used to…
